Business outlook

Pros

-work from home -pay differential for speaking Spanish - fulfilling to provide MNT to people with limited access

Cons

-pay is below market rate and company was not open to negotiating -went through two restructuring events in three months, letting go of many W-2 RDs with zero notice -management is not open to feedback. A coworker suggested an improvement for charting and instead got a lecture on how FoodSmart is the best company to work for -A lot of pressure for hour long sessions. This is easy for initial consults and certain clients but not practical for all follow ups. When this is brought up to management it ends up in gaslighting RDs on how they just need to create engaging sessions - training was rushed. There are many technical issues with FoodSmart bucks (incentives clients receive for meeting with us) and RDs are expecting to troubleshoot. Most of my emails to support put the responsibility back on me to figure it out. Questions get posted on slack and are answered by fellow RDs. Management seems to be nowhere to be found much of the time
