Leadership doesn't care about employees - Anonymous employee Wayside Recovery Center Employee Review

The new/current CEO is an amazing person, who cares a lot about the work and fostering an environment that prioritizes diversity and inclusion. While I didn't get along with everyone I worked with, for the most part I really enjoyed seeing my coworkers on a day to day basis. The therapists were especially wonderful, and brought a lot of passion to their work.

There was A LOT of diet talk/culture among the staff, especially the nursing staff while I was there, which was very upsetting considering that eating disorders and chemical dependency go hand in hand.

- A strong and clear company mission - Colleagues who really care about our clients - Good managers in my experience - In general most people are trying to create a good work culture and boost employee engagement - Decent health benefits

- Low pay - Senior leadership can be quick to promise solutions but usually I see very little action/intention - The amount of PTO to start with is tied for the lowest starting PTO amount of anywhere I've worked. Management appears to be out of touch with norms on this since they bragged to me when I started that it's very competitive and is more PTO than "almost all other companies out there." Coming straight from a job search where I saw countless benefit and PTO packages I can tell you that simply wasn't (and still isn't) true.
