Pros

- Some very strong clinicians and providers - Decent PTO policy

Cons

- Very little investment in employee development, which has lead to incessant turnover - Limited resources and extremely lean operating structure - Company culture feels regressive; promotes a "butt-in-seats" mentality - Lack of transparency and direction from leadership - Subpar employee benefits (no employer paid short term disability, no paid parental leave, short term disability does not cover mental healthcare) This organization has left me extremely concerned about the integrity of for-profit mental healthcare.

Pros

Free food every week or two from drug reps. Supportive, kind co-workers.

Cons

You can tell the quality of this business by the snotty replies to any negative review that is posted. I recommend you read them, very funny. Look at all of the negative reviews of this business, I agree wholeheartedly with all of them. There are some 5 star reviews every once in a while, that is because some people are asked to leave a good review for a reward, this happened to me, but I must remain truthful. Management is poor and disorganized, benefits package is awful, treat employees like robots instead of humans. The CEO is an idiot, more concerned with opening as many locations as possible instead of improving existing ones that are struggling. Many great, experienced employees leave, you can guess why; this causes a lot of turnover. Due to this employees that are promoted are usually not ready, then quickly, and very poorly trained then thrown to the wolves; managers especially so. Don't touch this place with a ten foot pole, as an employee or a patient.

Pros

Flexible hours, rewarding work with clients, get to know a lot of community resources.

Cons

Compensation sucks after they take out the taxes. Lots of driving without reimbursement, unless you bill over 70 hours (which is nearly impossible and if you want to overwork yourself). Another thing if you don't make enough hours? No PTO. Patients will cancel on you. There can be days when you wait all day for patients and they leave you stranded in a part of town that you didn't sign up for because they chose to cancel last minute.

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback. As a former employee your feedback is really important to us. We are committed to making Nystrom a great place to work. We do not control how much taxes are withheld from an employee’s paycheck. We also are unable to control when patients cancel their appointments but do strive to enable and train our staff on how to help reduce the amount of patient cancellations whenever possible. In order for our ARMHS and CTSS Mental Health Practitioners to obtain mileage benefits, we require that they have 25 hours per week, or 50 hours per pay period. PTO is accrued when a Mental Health Practitioner works 35 hours per week (70 hours total per pay period) in ARMHS and 68 hours per pay period (every two weeks) in CTSS. All of the required meetings are compensated via the salary that this position as a Mental Health Practitioner entails. Generally, ARMHS Mental Health Practitioners have 5 hours of meetings per month and CTSS Mental Health Practitioners have 8 hours of meetings each month. These meeting times and requirements are required by the Minnesota Department of Human Services. We will use your feedback to evaluate our compensation and benefits package in the future to remain competitive within the mental health industry. Again, thank you for your feedback.
