    Not the worst job

    Feb 3, 2023 - Behavioral Health Specialist (BHS) 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Each department is it's own tight-knit community - makes you feel seen and heard You are trusted to get your work done and not micro-managed There's a lot of freedom and independence that comes with that trust Occasional work-from-home days are a plus

    Cons

    Not all Supervisors are created equal - if you have a tyrant of a supervisor, while another team has an awesome supervisor, it can feel isolating and unfair VERY HIGH turn-over rate all over campus leads to burn out from having to cover extra duties that were not your job to begin with Random drug testing - it's 2023, can we move on from this style of punishment and fear mongering? The websites the HHS departments use are ANCIENT! Like from the 90s when we were still in Web 1! It's 2023 - we are almost moving into Web 3 - this is unacceptable. The websites used are about as old as the men still running the show in Texas - it's too conservative, it's time for a change. Very opinionated and old school in a lot of ways due to older men still being in charge, they have not gotten with the change in the times, but that's an issue with Texas as a whole.

    Former Employee, more than 5 years

    Company was GREAT. Location not so much..

    Dec 19, 2022 - QIDP/Case Manager 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    One of the biggest pros in working for the company is the free healthcare. This position is a salary position plus overtime which is a big plus. My management team was one of the best teams I have ever worked for as they were incredibly supportive and helpful. The other departments I worked with were excellent team players.

    Cons

    The job can at times be stressful when it comes to deadlines however it was bearable. What made it unbearable was the location. Working at the Corpus Christi location was TERRIBLE! IF you're able to relocate to other facilities, DO IT. My department and the other departments within the IDT were incredibly supportive, however the directors at this facility only care about one thing and it is not the employees or the individuals living there..
