Pros

flexible - work from home option

Cons

1. You have to learn to use about 17 apps to talk to people about nothing to do with your job. 2. You are going to start off paying them instead of making an income for several months, which is unheard of in my experience and could put you into debt like it did for me. 3. Your time/work and life balance is not respected or maybe even noticed, as the only goal is to take in as much money as possible 4. You will have clients tell you they had to pay 325 dollars for an intake, and either quit right after because they can't afford it, or continue on, and you will see 50 dollars max of that payment while the company takes the rest. 5. Greed and misinformation about compensation are ok for this company for some reason (Google Lifestance and use AI - something I should have done, but didn't do until it was too late, unfortunately)

Pros

Incredible place to work to build experience, receive supervision while supporting a diverse client population. Extremely flexible hours, opportunity to either work from home or in office with administrative staff. Truly caring, intentional, experienced regional leaders that are open to feedback and value their employees.

Cons

Working in mental health in a publicly held corporation has its conflicts of interest. No paid vacation time for FT employees which is counterintuitive to the work we do as trauma informed providers. No paid training. Profitability and bottom-line results for shareholders should not be reason to think of long term needs and burnout potential of providers.
