No hope for employees

School based therapist

Business Outlook

Pros

Good way to get experience with a wide variety of clients. Paid supervision. Lots of CEU’s. Nice first step into the field if you’re new.

Cons

Pay for performance scale. You get paid for what you bill. They’re not fully honest about that in the beginning. Don’t expect to produce the hours they say you need to reach your target salary. Especially in the beginning because there’s already a ton of other things you have to learn. This means the majority of staff get a second position in the agency to get a paycheck. If they don’t they typically don’t last so turnover is very high in all areas of the agency including management. Constant changes in structure. Not enough staff so current staff are typically overloaded.

Low pay, but you expect that with CMH

Community support specialist

Business Outlook

Pros

Always opportunities to move up or switch to full-time if needed. There are plenty of clients to fill a caseload (typically 25 hours per week full-time). Staff are really supportive

Cons

PRODUCTIVITY! The hourly pay rate is only for billable services - they do not pay towards admin or drive time (however they do reimburse for mileage). When clients cancel/no show and you're just out that time/money, so there's pressure to over-book. Benefits aren't great if you have to include your family on the health plan. They cover a percentage of the employee, but do not cover any portion of the spouse/kids. Heath insurance costs through them for a family is comparable to going through the marketplace

Pros

Great clientele Free Clinical Supervision Great coworkers

Cons

You are not a contract employee yet they expect you to use your own computer and telephone with no reimbursement. Mileage rates are less than 20 cents per mile and mileage is not given if your client does not show up. Pay is based on productivity which reflects the participation level of the most ill and lowest resourced people in our communities. Employees are asked to attend unpaid trainings often in other cities with no mileage reimbursement, so basically you are not just working for free you are actually paying to work. Clinical managers are sometimes Bachelor's level yet make clinical decisions for Master's level therapists and caseloads. Clients suffer because they receive a new clinician on an average of every 6-18 months due to high turnover rate. Rarely does anyone stay after licensure is obtained. Pay is much lower than other agencies I have worked for yet they will say it is "competitive". The only people who stay in this company are those who move up to management and have to recruit people to work in these conditions.
