Pros

Decent pay if you're not a doctor.

Cons

Check out their TrustPilot and you'll see what people think of what the company is producing. They've grown over the last year and, as a result, people will recognize the company if you tell them you work there. Unfortunately they don't recognize it in a good way. The telehealth industry also has major storm clouds on the horizon in the form of a DEA ruling that could end the pandemic-era rules for prescribing controlled substances online. This company views the American mental health crisis as an opportunity to make money and nothing else. Their values are growth and cashflow.

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.
