Pros

The mission is admirable Objectively making psychiatry more accessible work/life balance is good individual contributors and middle management are mostly incredible people

Cons

Myopic focus on NYC means little impact elsewhere Executive leadership either lies to each other, the board, or just all of the corporate staff Direction changes are frequent and based on hunches, hopes, and dreams There's a reason average employee stay is under 1 year -- and its not because they're growing (its because they keep laying people off) Cannot NOT recommend this company enough if you value personal stability

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.
