Pros
I worked at Smile Doctors for two years and experienced constant undermining, lack of advocacy, and leadership unwilling to address core issues. Despite promises of training and growth, I never received any real support or professional development. There was no clear path for advancement, no opportunities to learn, and I observed strong discrimination that made it impossible to thrive. Ultimately, I resigned due to the toll on my mental health and the organization’s unwillingness to address legitimate concerns.
Cons
Toxic leadership culture with frequent blame-shifting No real training or professional development opportunities No advancement in responsibilities or compensation for two years Discrimination, lack of advocacy, and minimal support for employees of color Nonexistent accountability or structured processes to fix underlying issues
