Pros
4 weeks paid vacation, plus paid floating holidays, plus paid sick days; medical benefits and insurance benefits; $250 reimbursement for job-related needs/expenses; 401K plan.
Cons
You get paid sick days but you have to give 2 weeks advance notice (which is understandable); but if you have to take an emergency day or time off, be prepared to get an almost threatening email (and it goes out to everyone!), about taking that emergency day off, instead of getting a call of concern to find out what happened. For a therapeutic agency, their management team needs to take a course in effective, productive and kind communication. Seriously. Management doesn't care about burnout from scheduling you with 40 clients per week, back-to-back, every hour on the hour; and if your client doesn't show up or cancels last minute, then your metrics are affected and you can find yourself getting a PIP (performance improvement plan) because you are held responsible for clients not showing up, and you will lose your job if your clients continue to not show up, cancel, etc. As a relatively new start-up of over 6 years, there is constant change with insufficient training (or one-on-one training). Upper management DOES NOT LISTEN to the concerns of their therapists (it feels like most of the time), they just push back at you. Lower management is sympathetic, but really can't effect change or concerns. Company meetings have to do with numbers. They don't address the needs and concerns of the therapists: burn out, and unrealistic expectations. Upper management is quick to criticize and slow to praise. They want you to get additional licenses, certifications, and run groups, but your salary does not change (you may get a one-time bonus, while the company gets continuous additional income from you and your additional services).
