Pros

Good pay and immediate benefits.

Cons

This company only sees clients as dollar signs. There is very little to no training at all and the main office is in Boston. If you don't work in Boston then your boss is hundreds of miles away, which actually could be a pro instead of a con actually. There are too many communications about the little stuff and important stuff doesn't get organized and taken care of properly. This company is entirely too top heavy. The product they sell LOOKS incredible and it would be .....if it worked. You also deal with practioners who think they are all mighty and treat you like crap - much like the management.

Pros

-Benefits are ok. Not -It's nice to know you are doing a job that helps people. -The work has a cool factor to it

Cons

-This is a small company (~50 employees). I worked in the Newburgh office (<20 employees). Even with the few amount of people, we were flying blind. The inter-company, inter-departmental communication was terrible. -No incentives. No upward movement, wages do not reflect amount of skill needed for job, and raises are non existent. $15/hr does not cut it. -Employees are veiwed as expendables rather then investments. -Rampant micromanagement, manipulation, bullying, nepotism and emotionally abusive management which facilitates a stress filled, highly dysfunctional work environment. -HR ignores complaints and does not respect confidentiality. -Mandatory overtime without notice. -Very high turn over rate In my 5+ years ~20 Employees were hired and left (most due to the stress/ bullying from management) the Newburgh office. This does not include the cleaning house layoffs in the Ohio and UK. Summery: Imagine having your dream job where you get to work with all your friends doing something really interesting that helps people who need it. Now imagine this dream job is being run by the worst high school bully, pushing you to the edge every day. To the point where you having nervous breakdowns on the way to work. At some point the stress out weighs all the positives and you leave. Years later, you still have nightmares about the place. So much so, that after one of the stressful dreams you go on-line, find glassdoor and write a review about what you experienced. It's like that.
