Pros

Colleagues, therapist leads and therapy managers. They got rid of the best therapist lead and after that, I knew the company was about the bottom line rather than loyal, hardworking and intelligent people. Remote work is flexible yet capacity is unpredictable.

Cons

This is a tech company who masquerades as a Whole Health company. Technology, money grubbing and metrics overshadow the work of intelligent and dedicated mental health professionals. It’s platform is draconian and the content is outdated yet it’s always being. Only tech knows exactly what is available to helpful work flow, so it’s an afterthought to let the people working with it everyday know. The ceo, who is also an investor follows in the footsteps of whatever big tech companies, like Google and PayPal, do. Directors that are screwed and not to be trusted, gets promoted. They let people go, then promote. Favoritism is alive and well. Value of invested employees is nonexistent and very little trust exists after the erratic and manic changes this year. Fintech Snark Tank take: Funny how the “hard decisions” that Schulman mentioned doesn’t include the “hard decision” to retain dedicated, loyal staff members in hard economic times even if it means taking a hit on profitability. I could not have said it better myself. By the way, Did anyone at the top take pay cuts? No, they just add more well paid heads.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits and they provide you with equipment. It's a startup so there is definitely room to grow, my supervisor had only been with the company for 2 years! It was great being part of such a community driven to help people. I liked working in the startup environment, from marketing professionals, to MDs we all could give eachother tips, encouragement, and support in a slack channel. It was great to experience the company like a community, in my last job we could only speak within our bubble of teams.

Cons

The training process was very difficult because they don't send you equipment until after you complete training. I had to download a whole CRM system on my 6 year old Mac Sequoia and my computer has never recovered. Also there can be a lot of misinformation, you'll be told one process by someone and then be critiqued by someone else that it was incorrect, needless to say sometimes instructions were not very clear. I think it would help if they extended their training beyond 1 week. I do want to specify that the person in charge of the trainees is great and very diligent, the issue is with company policy and not an indvidual.
