Pros
- Open gym atmosphere for follow ups, usually private treatment rooms for initial evals - Most of the PT's are pretty cool (first and second hand report). Fun to work with and it's a generally good, fun environment. But if your coworkers suck, there is really no avoiding them. - Medbridge access which is great - includes HEP programs and CEU courses
Cons
- All they care about is productivity, even if that means borderline fraud and overbilling. They have explicitly said to me they want to see all patients on average of 1 hour per session, 13 visits total, and 2-3x/week. Maybe they only need 5 sessions for 40 minutes each? Doesn't matter. - They treat their PT's like crap. Recently during the extreme cold in Chicago they FORCED PT's company wide to use their PTO and take the day off and squeezed patients into rest of the week to save money. That's BS. - It's a sinking ship. The company is not financially thriving. Cancelled the christmas party. Cut aide hours. Aggressively expanding clinics to offset overhead costs, increasing revenue at the "ground level" or at the PT clinics (main revenue stream). - You will work extra for no overtime. - Very average pay - likely 65-70k for a new grad.
