Pros
PTO- more than basic two weeks and ability to increase with continued time with agency. Flexible usage There is some ability to move and change positions with the company. Had some great colleagues Training opportunities
Cons
Unfortunately, I felt TWP lacked insight and understanding and did not value employees. While mental health is a challenging field to work in, there was a lack of respect and protection of their own employees well being. It often seemed as though there was constant blame upon employees for issues without examining how they might have contributed to the frustration and possible resignation of staff (lack of listening, problem solving, empathy). Directors often spoke down to other administrators and staff and did not lead by example. Policies and practices seemed to change scenario by scenario. Often, I attended work very anxious and not sure what to expect. It’s all unfortunate because I truly enjoyed my position and the colleagues I worked with closely on a daily basis. However, the negative culture and climate from upper administration depleted my own mental health and made me recognize I could not continue in this type of environment under any circumstances.
