Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Do not expect a raise- Symbria will state this is due to Medicare cuts and COVID but there was a rate freeze for years prior to the pandemic. Pushing all seasoned therapists out to hire new grads at below industry standard rates. Lack of training or professional development opportunities. ESOP is a joke- please Google “Symbria ESOP lawsuits” This company will bleed you dry! They will sell you a dream that will never come true.

We're sorry you found your experience with Symbria to be disappointing. During the pandemic Symbria provided hero bonuses to therapists, maintained health insurance for employees who were furloughed due to low census and called back furloughed employees as soon as possible. We regularly promote from within and we have recognition programs to reward and thank employees. It has been a tough few years for healthcare; Medicare cuts and low census due to COVID are real challenges. Symbria continues to do its best to support employees and the ESOP is one way we do so. The ESOP provides a retirement benefit to employees in addition to traditional retirement plans like a 401(k). ESOPs follow strict federal regulations under the Employee Retirement & Income Security Act of 1974 and must meet the employee benefit plan requirements of the Department of Labor. ESOPs. There are nearly 7,000 ESOPs in the United States covering more than 14 million participants. Symbria's ESOP has an independent trustee who, as a fiduciary, protects the ESOP participants. The trustee specifically attests to the reasonableness of a company's share price. Googling "what is an ESOP" will provide more information. - Deb Bragg, Chief HR Officer

Thank you for your feedback. The past two years have been difficult financially for many healthcare companies, including Symbria. Although we were not able to provide increases last year, we did provide Hero bonuses for therapists in May/June. For therapists furloughed during the height of the pandemic, we maintained health insurance benefits - and we called back employees as soon as our clients had the census to support it. We try hard to provide competitive benefits, including shares in the company, and make pay adjustments whenever financially feasible. - Deb Bragg, Chief HR Officer
