Pros

The managers and coworkers are great.

Cons

You have to sign a contract and if you break your contract due to health problems / reason they make you pay back part of your hiring bonus. They have no empathy for you and your life if it is about personal health. They remove your benefits as soon as they are able to. Be careful and read the contract carefully. I never expected to have any problem fulfilling my contract. I never expected a company providing therapy to be so unforgiving when a major medical problem arose.

Pros

Incredible place to work to build experience, receive supervision while supporting a diverse client population. Extremely flexible hours, opportunity to either work from home or in office with administrative staff. Truly caring, intentional, experienced regional leaders that are open to feedback and value their employees.

Cons

Working in mental health in a publicly held corporation has its conflicts of interest. No paid vacation time for FT employees which is counterintuitive to the work we do as trauma informed providers. No paid training. Profitability and bottom-line results for shareholders should not be reason to think of long term needs and burnout potential of providers.
