Pros

None. Even if you have experience within psychiatry, they'll still pay you the flat $18 an hr they pay everyone else.

Cons

Recruiting lies to get people within the 'doors', promises you different hours than they're actually hiring for, and have been since June. Management is terrible and doesn't get back to you in regards to anything. I basically left my company for a promise of something better, because their doors were closing, and got nothing out of it. They lied from the get, and should be sued for misinformation from the beginning. Listen to most of the one star reviews and stay far away from this place.

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.
