Lack of Direction and Unstable Company - Anonymous employee JumpstartMD Employee Review

-Health Coaches are severely unrecognized, unsupported, over-worked and under paid, causing the company to lose many wonderful, talented people. During my 1 year at JSMD, my entire office was either fired or quit. -If you ever need a day off or get sick, there is no one to cover or support you, and you are expected to submit your vacation requests 30-45 days in advance, depending on the length of your vacation. I often went to work sick due to not having coverage. -Employees are let go and hours are cut without notice and reason. I was hired as a full time employee, and soon after I started my hours were cut to part time with no explanation. -Clinic hours are often changed with a day's notice, upsetting patients and health coaches. -There is no room for growth and to further your education/knowledge. There is no collaboration between fellow health coaches or upper management, and your voice will go unheard if you have a suggestion or opinion. -Raises are very minimal and there is no pattern to who receives them. Some of the best performing employees did not receive a raise, and those who did received a mere 50 cents more per hour. -Truly, the only concern for upper management is making money, not the welfare of its employees or patients. -Upper management is quick to make big decisions, most of them leading to lay-offs, unhappy employees, and patients.
