I can't believe these horrible working conditions exist in this country.

Physical therapist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Other therapists who try to provide decent patient care

Cons

This is absolutely the worst company I've ever worked for. They lie to employees to try to get them to come and work for them and then treat them like slaves. Ethical behavior is discouraged by high productivity standards. PTO days are difficult to get approved unless your productivity stays unreasonably high.

Rehab tech

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent Co-workers and good facility.

Cons

I dont know where to start, Looks like the CEO of the company is blind and cant see anything except green money. Area director and program managers are corrupt and disgusting. No idea about anything going on, Only push therapist to get minutes. Money Money Money- Interested in hiring dumb new grad- grads agree to take job to pay for their tutions and get stuck there. HR department works for Program managers. Eventually they will be reported to medicare fraud. offices are dirty and no resources. Managers are cheap wont even buy a coffee or contribute to monthly parties. Managers so cheap that they bring their dogs to work. Managers plays on their iphone and disrespective if you confront them. area managers kiss the ass of managers and becomes deaf if you complain. IN SHORT PLEASE DONT JOIN THIS COMPANY

Cant think of a good reason to work there. Its a very hostile and negative work environment.

Pay is low, employees are not treated with any repect. Residents are ignored by nursing staff due to pressure from administration and supervisors. Constant employee turnover. Employees are fired if they report misconduct by supervisors.
