Pros

Supportive coworkers, base pay is decent in Minneapolis.

Cons

NUWAY's board of directors don't know what they are doing; cares more about money than clients or staff; admissions accepts clients that need a higher level of care than NUWAY can provide (bonus's are based on number of clients they admit); you can accrue PTO decently if you are full time but good luck using it; perpetually short staffed while "on call" people can seemingly never pick up shifts; if you pass medications, you may or may not receive consequences for errors: nursing arbitrarily decides when someone is officially reprimanded or if it's a "learning lesson" they'll sweep under the rug depending on who or how many people got the same error; for yearly reviews, supervisors are told not to give too high of scores so they can avoid giving anyone raises.

Pros

The clients and honest employees (counselors, techs, and PRSS)

Cons

The PR spin Nuway created about the Kare 11 exposé was not accurate. Leadership from the VP level and up all knew what they were doing was unethical, and many employees voiced serious concerns, yet they continued directing outpatient counselors to bill in what they referred to as a "gray area" so the upper leadership circle could continue taking in hundreds of thousands of dollars in salary and bonuses, and enjoying luxury company cars and travel on the company dime. If all of that weren't bad enough, the culture was toxic and felt like real life Survivor, complete with cutthroat drama and backstabbing. Clients and honest employees are the ones who lost in this equation. Other employers should be wary of hiring leaders that were involved with Nuway the past few years because all of the good leaders left when their ethical concerns were dismissed. Leaders who stayed are complicit. Prospective employees should run for their lives and avoid this ticking time bomb. This is a red flag you don't want on your résumé. The leaders who created the toxic culture should be named: CEO David Vennes CFO Tom Meier CCO Kenneth Roberts CCRO Monique Bourgeois CSO John Miller VP Angela Hansen VP Lindsay Gephart VP Shelley Skarda VP Ryan Clukey VP Heather Anderson VP Amy Dellwo
