Overworked Under Paid

Billing coordinator

Business Outlook

Pros

I love my Manager very understanding and always willing to help. I get to remote from my home. The bonuses.

Cons

They over work you and give you low pay. They monitor your key strokes and mouse clicks. Supervisors treating their staff like kids. It's a remote job and they monitor bathroom breaks and idle time. No overtime, No tuition reimbursement, No moving up but there is always job posting. The providers are rude. You be so burnt out, overwhelmed, and stressed. A mental health company turned their workers into mental health patients. The bonus used to be good but they took them away. We barely get anything doing other departments work. They also praised other departments when we doing all the work. The pay is so low you need a second job to pay bills. This company is very unorganized. I forgot to mention you clock in one minute late you get a point and you clock out early you get a point.

Not What It Seems

Clinician liaison

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

My Direct supervisor was absolutely phenomenal. She went above and beyond through every obstacles to ensure her team felt supported, heard and valued. She was/is one of two in management to contact me following the news of my departure. I know without a doubt she is the sole reason many still remain on the team presently.

Cons

- four departures in upper management within the BD department in 3 years - KPI’s are based on several reports that have been historically inaccurate - During my 3 year tenure the only growth I have seen in the BD department was one team member moving into a managerial position. The other four growth opportunities were all given to external candidates. - Territories are entirely too large and have changed 4 times since being employed. - Collaboration efforts/involvement from the operations team varies significantly across the states and individual offices

Business Outlook

Pros

Some kind patients, educational resources, and generous training time

Cons

Unprofessionalism is rampant, admittance of low pay, no company culture, be prepared to never see anyone since everyone works remote anyways and encounter a lot of lying and overpromising.
