Pros

Flexible schedule Ability to connect to diverse coworkers Pay is pretty good for associates

Cons

Pay for independent therapists is laughable and insulting. They do a tier pay structure for 1099s (like better help) it will only contribute to burn out. The company has been through so many layoffs that it’s terrifying. My managers got laid off recently and they got rid of an in-person auditor for charts. They also don’t take insurance anymore. They will do super bills but that puts even more responsibility on the clients. They are rolling out couples therapy way too fast. There is hardly any good guidance anymore. For a company with this many associate level therapists, that’s not good. Communication between upper management and workers is minimal. Also, advertisement has been cut for a while now, leading to smaller caseloads. The company has put a lot of the advertisement responsibility on the therapists. Essentially the message we get is “Oh you want more people? Well, here is a link to your profession. Share it around.” And do we get paid for this advertisement? No. There used to be a wonderful community of therapists here and now moral is at an all time low. So many people have left. Clients don’t want to stay due to the turn over. We all feel betrayed and clients are suffering, too.

Pros

Benefits, PTO, flexibility, direct supervisor

Cons

Legality of processes and work was always questionable. Promote based on how well you're liked, and not on whether you're doing your job well or accurately.
