Pros
Flexible schedule; if you work hard the supervisors are pretty hands-off with regard to the number of hours you work. The production expectations are not insane either. The minimal amount of work that is expected is really reasonable. There's never a shortage on clientele either, which is essential for any clinician looking to get better in the field. There are supervisors available to provide clinical supervision hours for those who wish to pursue an independent license (currently most of those supervisors hold an LPC, so if you're trying to go for LCSW perhaps you want to look elsewhere). My colleagues were, for the most part, competent and enjoyable.
Cons
A lot of the work takes place outside of the office and whilst the company does reimburse for gas, driving all over is somewhat exhausting. Therapists currently do not have their own offices, which for a trauma-informed care facility is a problem since consistency of setting is so important. On-boarding (i.e. the ramp-up period) is 30 days and at most other non-profit agencies that period of time is 90 days. The 30 day model leaves insufficient time for clinicians to properly learn the essentials of the job. The pay structure has changed significantly and thus a clinician is not paid nearly what a clinician's position is worth (that's the case anywhere though, however it's far worse here). Some, not all, of the supervisors lack the necessary competence in clinical supervision. The Devereux EHR is very complex. Most of the focus has shifted to billing and production as opposed to actual client care. This emphasis on billing has lead to some ethically murky billing situations (i.e. billing for voicemails and/or staffing that may not be clinically necessary). Supervisors sometimes assign referrals to clinicians who lack the necessary training to be effective with certain clients and thus force some practitioners to practice beyond their scope, which is a real problem.
