      Great remote work but struggles with project management

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Full time remote work, unlimited PTO, flexible work hours

      Cons

      Company does not hire enough personnel to conduct field on heavy-field-work projects, causing burnout quickly. Poor budgeting, scheduling and management on several projects.

      Cautionary Tale

      Licensed clinical social worker lcsw

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Flexible with scheduling, easy with on boarding, they recruit you.

      Cons

      They don't give raises to everyone, like other companies with the same contract. They don't follow labor laws, they allow GS admin to mistreat their own employees. People constantly quit because of the treatment and pay. They make you use your PTO/sick hourd to do CE training or other training needed for the job. PhD's get paid 30-40k more but do the same job duties as LCSW'S
