Pros
Worked with some excellent therapists who had a desire to remediate the disabilities of their patients and supported Assistants in their endeavors to be the best therapists for their patients.
Cons
Ethics Micromanagement Treatment of Employees The owners both have the worst management styles and speak to employees in a very demeaning manner, as if employees are children. The owner that is an SLP is unethical in the sense that he does not complete full reevaluations on patients, but will gather information for the Assistant and then raise the standard scores and report to insurance without even seeing the patients. He also does not conduct his one hour of direct supervision and one hour of indirect supervision on his SLPAs that he supervises. Both owners use scare tactics to get employees to do what they want them to do. This includes signing a contract for employment that carries a penalty of $8K up to $15K if the employee does not stay with the company for a year. Turnover rate is extremely high. Nepotism Owners do what is best for their pocket books instead of what is best for patients. Owners are very controlling and make promises they do not keep. Owners offer bonuses and referral bonuses to employees and then do not want to follow through with their offers. One of the owners sister is in charge of payroll and the Intake Dept. She recently resigned her position due to the controlling nature of the owners.
