Management is inexperienced, disrespectful, and does not care about her employees. Very high turnover. Nasty disposition. Poor follow through. No Health benefits. Pay is horrible unless you're right out of high school.

The company was in its first 3 years, built from the ground up and it took time to build up a benefits package. Any small business within its first few years of start up will have a journey of building up its workforce and compensation. We're glad to be be able to offer PTO, paid holidays, health insurance, short and long term disability and more. This is all due to our amazing and committed team to the mission of racial justice.
MNCP is an incredible organization that works to break down systems for disenfranchised folks. So if you are passionate about creating an equitable world, this organization walks the walk and talks the talk. Also, Katy, the founder, is an incredible person, and many other lovely people work at MNCP.
Cons
There are no concerning cons. My only suggestion for new staff is that training can be sparse, so there is a learning curve with clinical charting. However, because of this, there is a lot of patience and understanding for newer colleagues.
--Competitive initial salary.
--Supportive work environment and culture.
--Life-work balance. I get to choose my hours as a full-time employee which is a huge perk when you have a family.
--Flexible work environment. I can flex my hours when sick or when I have a Dr appt.
--Ability to WFH some days of the week.
--MNCP has a great mission and you can tell the employees here really care about the clients.
--Great opportunities for advancement and to take on leadership opportunities are available.
--Ability to work independently and as a group.
--Great learning opportunities to develop professionally.
--Free Continuing Education courses that are usually very useful and enriching.
Cons
--Some work is unpaid if you are part-time.
--The company is not great with scheduling annual reviews which usually means no raises.
--Training efforts could improve.
--No 401k match (yet).
--MNCP combines PTO with sick time which I would prefer to keep separate. Also, PTO is not very generous at this time. Overall, all of their current benefits could continue to improve.
--Don't see a lot of underserved groups represented in leadership positions.
--More efforts for staff acknowledgment/praise would be beneficial.
