Pros
• There are some wonderful, smart people at SCC. • Great opportunity to gain clinical experience across many facets of the mental health field. • Supervision towards licensure & opportunities for professional development paid for by SCC. • The Center pays for all supplies and clinical tools.
Cons
• Staff is micromanaged by supervisors - time sheets, hours worked, use of sick and annual time, etc. are all watched closely. There are trackers upon trackers to input dates and times of work completed to help supervisors determine whether we are meeting deadlines. • Staff is micromanaged! Staff in the school based department must fill out a second time sheet detailing where they spend their 8 hours per day so supervisors believe they have been working all 40 hours and not....twiddling their thumbs? • Rather than asking staff for feedback on how to improve work flow, supervisors use punitive means (intimidating, confrontational meetings and write-ups) and add way more work for staff. • SUPER low morale - every employee at SCC hates it and is looking for other jobs. • Low morale leads to high staff turnover.
