Pros

Good benefits, free snacks and coffee

Cons

The most toxic work environment I’ve ever been in. Overworked, underpaid and undervalued. Management forces employees to write 5 star reviews to try and distract from the truth about working here. You either have to drink the koolaid and like it (not have any conflicting opinions or feedback) or you will be humiliated in front of others, treated like garbage or fired. They manage under fear and oppression. For a company in this industry, run by a former therapist, they have no concern for their employees’ mental health or work/life balance. It’s unbelievably toxic. DO NOT WORK HERE

Poorly managed duplicitous company

Pros

Non upper management employees and providers are great to work with.

Cons

Poor communication between upper management, blame shifting and managers throwing people under the bus is common, emotional badgering and dishonesty about promotion everyone to be themselves. Would send multiple messages about focuses of company and then tell you something completely different. Pretend to understand and be flexible with life scheduling only to lie to you about said flexibility.

Thank you for your candid feedback. You bring up a few points in here that I would like to address, and share some of my thoughts on: You are correct that it’s not easy to pinpoint the exact moves that we need to make to continue to be one of the premier mental health providers in the Greater Seattle area. We are a small company making the leap to more medium sized, thus we are approaching new challenges every day that impact our growing team. We don’t have all the answers, and we don’t pretend to either. With having a small management team, we all wear many different hats and have to shift our focuses many times throughout the day. This especially applies when we realize the direction we are heading with a project is ultimately not going to benefit our team or Mindful Therapy Group as a whole. You mention poor communication between members of our upper management team, to which I have to humbly disagree. Our entire team is in constant communication, and information that is important and impacts the team is shared in a very timely fashion. That being said, communications between our upper management team members is not something that everyone is (or should be) privy too. I can say from personal experience that this company is very interested in growing its individuals and developing their talent. We are a close knit team that honors open communication. We are willing to work around our employee’s lives and extenuating circumstances on a by-case basis, more so than any other company that I have worked for. We wish you luck in your career.

Pros

Front of house staff are generally wonderful people

Cons

MTG has some big obstacles to overcome as they expand and it would do upper management well to consider the following: employ proactive problem identification instead of constantly scrambling to pivot members of your team. You set your front of house staff up for success when they are allowed to learn each process thoroughly (these are the basic fundamentals of education). They say they are a small company but have grown and expanded to the point where it would be in their best interest to hire an out of house business management group to keep that ball rolling and ensure policies are set in place that not only continue to drive that growth in the right directions and set operation standards from upper management to front of house as you expand. Consistency is key in the making of any brand. Mindful will always give you an unreasonable amount of work to "grow you" and never fairly compensate you for said work. It has been one of the most invalidating, frustrating, and infuriating parts of the job. In that vein, most entry scheduling jobs at clinics and hospitals pay a base of $23 or more for entry level positions with no pivots, less work, and better hours. Don't expect anywhere near that here. They tout being a "mindful" company but only when it suits them and their needs. If you are sick, guess what?! Your sick time and your vacation time are the same thing. As an employee, don't expect to matter. If you truly value your mental health, find employment elsewhere.
