Pros

I've been lucky to work with great therapy teams at all the facilities I have worked at. Free CEUs through online website. Reimbursement for professional dues.

Cons

Every year they have cut benefits, reduced paid time off, or implemented wage freezes. They haven't provided 401k matching contributions in the past 4 years (it is discretionary). When wages haven't been frozen, the maximum annual merit raise is 2%, but the lengthy annual review scoring calculator makes that very hard to achieve.

Pros

They know how to say the right things to avoid nonpayment and will teach you how to do it, too.

Cons

Try to save money by cutting benefits, 8 days pto PER YEAR, $540 per month for healthcare for family with high deductible and out of pocket, lowering pay for incoming staff, financially circling the drain.
