Pros

My boss is great and the health benefits are great! My coworkers are awesome!

Cons

As every other dept gets pay raises, behavioral health does not. Pay is even up to $4 lower and hour than the other nonprofits in the area, who have gotten steady payraises. The only excuse we get from Admin is, "our dept's quarterly revenue wasn't enough." Everyone in the dept has a degree, and all got hired with experience or have been in the job for years.

Pros

Supportive coworkers and the use of Epic as the EHR.

Cons

Retirement match only deposited once per year instead of each pay period. This means less potential for gains in your own retirement account on that money throughout the year. And if you leave before the annual match, you forfeit an entire year's worth of company match. Pay is not at market level. In departments that are primarily remote, we are competing for talent among more prestigious orgs and also larger markets with much higher pay. It is nearly impossible to retain talent that isn't local and already accustomed to the lower wages (that have only become more stagnant since the merger). PTO (which includes vacation, holidays, and the first 3 days of illness leave) accrues at a much slower rate than other similarly sized organizations.
