Pros

-Excellent work-life balance. -Excellent, no cost health benefits. -Excellent FT staff for all administrative needs. -Focus solely on clinical work -Wonderful CEO and CMO, who share a vision for the future of mental healthcare, which I subscribe to. -Ability to work fully remote. -Gorgeous office spaces -Ample opportunity for consultation -Consistent flow of patients -Absolutely wonderful patient populations.

Cons

-Inadequate PTO as a healthcare provider (3 weeks cumulative per year, which includes sick time) -Mild concern due to uncertainty of growth trajectory for psychotherapist. -Administration encourages back-to-back scheduling of patients, which may be effective for psychiatry, but is absolutely not conducive for talk therapy. I am also fearful that this may ultimately lead to burnout. -Very poor clarity on incentivized compensation model.

Pros

The work is straightforward. The clients are mostly reasonable. I prescribe a lot of stimulants in states where I can prescribe them. The electronic medical record and the resources contained within make it easy enough to do it. A good job at this. They offer the use of an AI scribe to help with documentation. You can be involved as much or as little as you want to in activities beyond direct patient care. Talkiatry chooses to make its money through the use of the psychotherapy add-on code. You're incentivized to spend time talking with your patients, which seems like a win for everyone.

Cons

Figuring out how the performance portion of the pay structure works is challenging and takes several months. You also take a significant hit in taxes because of the the back that the performance portion of your salary is paid as a bonus which is taxed at 30%. This is higher than the base pay tax rate. I'm hopeful that I'll see the significant tax return next April.
