Pros
Good benefits package Good coworkers My department has an excellent manager Fair wages Work life balance is okay, but you'll go home so exhausted you probably won't want to do anything.
Cons
Impossible caseload and unreasonable schedules. We cannot possibly provide true quality services at the pace they expect us to see patients. It is almost impossible for someone to schedule a timely follow-up appointment, so patients wait a long time between visits. Best practices for the field cannot be followed because therapy is not meant to work like this. Workers are burning out at an incredible rate due to being overworked and discouraged by the care patients are getting. KP is trying to run mental health care like a car wash: get 'em in and get 'em out as fast as possible so the next person in line can come through. Everyone in my office is exhausted, frustrated, and discouraged. Morale is consistently very low and employees are starting to give up. People are not expecting it to get better any time soon.
