Not as it seems - Therapist Geode Health Employee Review

Flexibility and good mission. Management really understands that life can happen and you can tell balance is very important to them and in turn it trickles to employees. Geode not only prioritizes patients but also employees. I think it is a really good place to work!

I don't love all the benefit offerings. It would be nice to have more holidays off and mental health days built in. I would like to see an improved maternity leave policy. Also, they could do better with company culture. There are creative ways to do so being hybrid/virtual. I would like to see them emphasize that.

Free Lunch, Virtual Appointments, Nice Office Space

To be perfectly clear, Geode Health distinguished itself as the most brazenly soulless organization I’ve ever had the misfortune of passing through. From the first moments of a laughably disorganized training cohort, it was obvious this wasn’t healthcare so much as a revenue-extraction exercise wearing a thin clinical disguise. Any pretense of mission or ethics dissolved quickly; the only value system in place was whatever maximized short-term profit. I spent months participating in a model that cheerfully billed insurance companies $650 for an initial 60-minute session, while clinicians were pushed into a factory cadence—four new patients a day, seven hours of clinical work, one hour to clean up the mess administratively. Quality of care was treated as an inconvenient byproduct, not an objective. Once I found a tolerable alternative, I exited as quickly as possible. Learn from my mistake and don’t be seduced by the inflated promises. This is a private-equity-funded operation in the most literal, tactile sense of the phrase. That reality shows up everywhere: in the opacity of financial decisions, the absence of meaningful accountability, and the quiet understanding that people—patients and clinicians alike—are simply inputs in a spreadsheet.
