Mile High Behavioral Healthcare reviews

Too many to name. Some highlights; - Hiring extremely inexperienced program mangers in order to tow the line for the corrupt CEO and higher management team - A truly delusional CEO that in no way, shape, or form should ever be allowed to work in any non-profit - Low pay and no funding for programming....mysteriously - I repeatedly asked for official training for certain things and was repeatedly denied - Every. Single. Location. SMELLS. As Mile High chose to lay-off any form of housekeeping some years ago, every employee is required to assist in the basic upkeep of the facilities, which of course no one has time for. I felt like a parent repeatedly asking their children to pretty please clean up and was repeatedly told I was being aggressive and ridiculous. - You only have to look at the hilariously pathetic toilet paper this place uses to understand how little it thinks of it's staff and clients. They even send out a yearly email to explain why the TP is so incredibly cheap and horrible. Don't do anything that requires you to wipe or be treated with basic human dignity here! - Horrifically transphobic staff at every level. I quit on-site after 6 terrible months. A therapist with the Element team decided to purposefully scream my incorrect pronouns at me after I simply asked him to practice not calling everyone "girl." This person stayed employed for another 9 months and was only terminated for working from home and lying about it. I'm astonished this person is a licensed therapist who was allowed to see patients for that long. - The CEO decided to yell at a fellow staff for not scooping the snow off the sidewalk at Kalamath house. This staff was not told it was their job to scoop snow (because it wasn't) and had just had surgery that prohibited them from doing so. These are the only types of "issues" ceo Bob cares to address. - It's also super racist! At one point this company got the genius idea to hire a cis white woman to run the Trans Center. This woman berated a multiracial colleague and called her an expletive while actively working in the trans center. - Does way more harm to vulnerable populations repeatedly, systematically, and prolifically. - No trauma informed training provided to staff - No feedback is welcomed. EVER. - Lots of shady activities concerning the work environment on any level you can imagine. If you are desperate enough to work here record absolutely everything. Write an email about every single conversation. Keep a doc file with dates and times of when you witnessed various violations. This place keeps operating because it pointedly keeps traumatizing already marginalized staff into quitting and counts on our silence. I have had many reviews removed since my time there.

There are too many "cons" to draft a complete list, but the following comes to mind: - Poor program development/management: In the 11 months I worked here, I has a caseload of less than 20 due to a lack of referrals. I sat in a HALLWAY because they hired me without having space to put me. I was told the Family Preservation Center would open in Fall 2022. As of Feb. 2024, it is still not open. - Lack of transparency from management: my grant was lost and I was never informed, simply moved to another grant without my knowledge. - Culture of Apathy and Mistrust: Clients hate being, staff hate being there, the whole place is a bummer and it appears everyone is A-OK with that! - Wasteful allocation of resources: they prioritize flashy new projects over adequately maintaining existing programs; it appears the CEO has free reign to waste money however he chooses. Not to mention, the CEO has virtually no experience working in the field (Masters of Ed. obtained in 2005 and became a CEO in 2006...?) - Leadership does not respect self-determination of clients; white savior complex runs strong here! - Managers/Directors are VERY cliquey: professionalism and accountability is desperately lacking. - Offices are overcrowded and frankly, unhygienic: rotting food and dead bugs galore!
