Bankrupt - Recensione dipendente - Regional Director presso Anka Behavioral Health

My time predates 2020, but it is a good company with a good mission.

I was an administrative intern on a specific project, so did not see how the organization's upper management generally works. Enjoyed my specific team.

This is a great place to gain experience working in the mental health field. Pretty easy to get hired and gain access to the severely mentally ill population. Looks good on resume/CV.

This is not a company to work for long-term. That being said, I managed to work here for nine years, part of that time as a mental health rehab worker and part as a clinician. It was no picnic though, and I stayed as long as I did mostly for the experience and because a lot of that time I only worked PT while going to grad school. The staff are overworked and underpaid. They are given too many job responsibilities and expected to work 8 hours straight with no defined breaks. You are thrown into the position with no training and told you will "learn as you go." The compensation for the amount of work you do in both the MHRW and clinician positions is ridiculous; way below average! I was only getting paid about $50K/year as a LICENSED psychologist. Not worth the headache of having to work over 40 hours/week and dealing with such a difficult population (crisis residential, adult).
