Rutgers University Reviews

- Newark NJ is not so great a place to be in every day, although getting better

Unprofessional work environment full of nepotism. Hostile management. Treats mental health as a business. Manipulates insurance companies via extending patient stays for medication changes right before the patient's insurance coverage expires. Intimidates staff. Intimidates patients. Does not follow evidence based practice. Makes no effort to reduce recidivism of patients. Makes no effort to improve program dating back to 1980. Please do not fall into the trap of working here. You will be wasting state money. Workers have been intimidated regularly by managers. Workers are berated publicly by managers. The management is so poor that mandatory hands on safety trainings were neglected. These trainings are supposed to occur at least once a year to teach you how to safely restrain people. Without this training your safety and patient safety is at risk. I received this training once in over three years.
