Pros

The most beautiful clinic you will ever work in, wonderful coworkers and staff, fun environment, benefits, the pay has been getting better I hear (to keep people from quitting- see below), great mission, play therapy rooms are fully stocked with art supplies, sand tray, toys, materials, books.. everything you need

Cons

The CEO is a narcissist on a power trip. Do not trust him but do not let him get into your head either. Staff is functional without him but I will say that his influence significantly stunts the growth of the agency. He has no vision and does not listen to anyone but himself- seems to only be in it for his own self-image. Before he came in this was a wonderful and vibrant place to work. In recent years they can barely keep their staff. They brought in a new Director of Programs and things seem to be getting better. I hope the best for this agency because their work is so important and if you are a great clinician I hope you still consider.. just be careful of the compromised work culture.

Pros

Lower level staff cares so much about the mission and making a difference for the children we work with. Our clinicians and front desk staff mean the world to our clients and cds members will do anything for the providers and centers they work with. Most employees go out of their way to help each other and put on events.

Cons

The executive leadership is entirely performative and lacks any accountability whatsoever. Staff has actively held meetings to address this behavior and are met with blame and gaslighting regarding our care for the mission. It feels like it is the top against the bottom and is overall hostile at times. There is no recourse for inappropriate behavior because HR does not follow through on complaints and even engages in unethical behavior. I wish this place was better because the mission is amazing.
