Centerstone reviews

AWFUL pay. This is a highly stressful career, don't kid yourself, and our pay is a joke - especially considering ALL the responsibilities. Careplans, assessments, keeping releases up to date, doing medication and inpatient/residential referrals, creating and implementing safety plans, coordinating with families to link them to community resources, attending unnecessary meetings, attending all the super important meetings, etc... and this is all on top of actually seeing the clients! You'll have DOZENS upon dozens of them. No shortage of clients here! Oh and your supervisor, for whatever reason, will not close out referrals or say "No." She jjst keeps taking them on while she barely answers her phone or responds to emails. So it just gets worse and worse. Clients hardly getting seen because there are so many to see. This makes schools and parents unhappy. And we are all stressed out, burned out, unhappy, and management DOES NOT CARE. The hours of care expectation is ridiculous. You will work yourself to death at this job trying to hit bonus so it even feels like you're making a living and you STILL won't feel appreciated or valued!!!

High value placed on embodying Protestant work ethic ideas-as in, *appearing* to be busy, staying late into the evening, fielding calls on time off. There is a very adversarial relationship between management and lower level employees that actively detracts from that "noble purpose" no one shuts up about. Very obvious sexual harassment took place, and rather than firing the single individual perpetuating this harassment, management cracked down on the victim of the harassment and any colleagues who appeared to be supporting this person. The person perpetuating the harassment did her manager's tasks for her. Other employees were well aware this was the case, and the woman was free to harass a colleague at work and home for years. At a required work retreat, The Devil Wears Prada was screened while one of the managers passed out a crowd-source site article about lessons the movie teaches for surviving a hostile work environment. One of the items on the employee review checklist is that you "remain calm when provoked." When I left, a fellow therapist told me, "I didn't want to scare you while you were working at Centerstone, but I keep hearing about how unsafe it is." He was talking about physical safety of their employees, by the way. The C Suite is well aware of the above. They don't care. Good luck with your application.
