Pros

Schedule is adaptable. If you are black there will be many chances to move up. CEO will personally work with you.

Cons

low pay that never moves up, they will make you earn 25 billable hours a week with no credit given for any thing you do that is "unbillable" (which there is a lot). If you don't like being treating like a robot hired only to make money, the CEO will tell you "there is the door". There were several friends of the CEO whom got busted for drugs but that is kept covered up. The managers don't care why you want time off, they will make you feel guilty regardless. You get PTO but you are required to make up the billable hours for the times you are off. Constant restructuring of everything. No communication.

Pros

They offer free fruit every day. You can eat as much as you'd like. They are increasing the base pay for Care Managers. The benefits are good. They offer free therapy with their insurance package. You'll need it.

Cons

All mental health agencies like this one have problems. High turn over and open-secret fraudulent billing are prevalent throughout this field. Hamilton Center is no exception. Expect to see shady billing from all of the staff. What other reviewers have said about needing to know somebody to get ahead is absolutely true. They allow certain employees to assign their work to others, meaning they can take extra long lunches, disappear for hours on end or just generally do whatever with no consequences. Meanwhile, someone else is responsible for their work.

Pros

It gave me an opportunity to work with a variety of people who suffer from mental health issues and addictions. It's taught me what I would never want in a job again. It has taught me all the negative poor,management skills that I will never use and will do opposite of if I am ever in a leadership position. It has strengthened my assertiveness skills to stand up for what I believe in.

Cons

Underpaid, undervalued, unsupported, and micromanaged. Working at a satellite office, we get forgotten about and do not get the wellness benefits that the main office gets. We are told we need to take lunch breaks but are not given enough paperwork time to have them (or to have quality ones). We are pushed to get people through the door and back to back and still expect us to get our paperwork done, reassessments, Treatment plan reviews, coordination of care phone calls, etc. It is a toxic environment that I have to step out of...sadly not because I'm burnt out in my job with my clientele, but because I am tired about being underappreciated. I am a quality professional who has had multiple job offers already and raving reviews from clients. I am no longer willing to work for money as little as my clients make at a hardware store and work 2-4 hours over my salaried time. End of rant.
