Working here provides great money but it doesn't last long. I was hired and fired within 4 months. Which was a complete waste of time being that they don't train effectively and they except you to see 30 clients and complete 30 notes within 24 hours apart. This place has terrible ethics in which, they will switch and change the client's therapist at will and without notice to the therapist nor the client- completely unethical if it was a private practice. None of the supervisors are on the same page and they are consistently changing their minds about the same information. They will literally fire you by logging you out of everything before actually telling you. When employees were asking about job security they flat out lied, which is what they did the week of November 5th, 2024. They just downsize multiple programs because of insurance sending patients that came from other states back home or they just became homeless in California. Once again the pay is great for an associate therapist at $37 an hour but it doesn't last long.  A company this big and in multiple states, doesn't hire a lot of people and then fire within 4 months without mass layoffs, violating the WARN Act, AFTER employees passed their 90 days.



This company works with people that want to change their lives and I see it and hear it every single day. People are reconnecting with themselves in sobriety and working toward stabilizing their mental health symptoms with the assistance of their clinical team. People are reconnecting with people in their lives, working on healing, and learning how to establish life changing sober support networks. People are reconnecting with the world around them, getting jobs, and becoming productive members of society. People are finding purpose and meaning in their lives as they learn to work hard in pursuit of their dreams. We need more companies like this one working tirelessly walking along side people that want better lives for themselves, lifting them up, cheering them on, and educating on all aspects of establishing and maintaining sobriety. It is an amazing place to work. I have never had better more supportive management in all my years of work. I love that I get the privilege of walking along side people on their journey to live their best life.

A typical day may include all clients being discharged at the same time. Every bed will be full by the end of that day, and you will be required to do all the intakes, searches, and assessments. You will also be doing 15 minute rounds, as well as 20 minute intervals of property  rounds which require you to walk to 16 different spots throughout the property and insert a wand into a checkpoint system. In the short time I was there, the entire staff was let go several times and replaced, including the program director. There is zero job security, and many of the facilities in 55 silver/witty personnel have been closed by the State, including the facility were I worked. One day you have a job. The next day you don't. Our facility used former clients to recruit other clients, and many of our clients claim they were promised payment to be there which created a stressful work environment. 

Honestly the only thing that kept me there was the flexibility in my schedule; it is fully remote and they were very helpful when I needed changes with my schedule or time off. Working remote is a huge plus obviously. 
However, I did not feel properly trained, as we were repeatedly getting re-trained due to being given misinformation the first time around, and I did not feel that my pay rate matched my experience and education. This was something that I was only doing until something else came along. I was not even getting paid what fast food employees in my area were getting paid; but it was at least full time.
It started to get extremely stressful toward the end with clients constantly being distressed and disgruntled due to the company’s unethical business practices. I can handle a disorganized work environment, but not when it start hurting vulnerable people who came to get help. 

Clock in, emails overflooded, chase clients to get a session, complete notes, and clock out. Too many supervisors and none of them are on the same page. No training. The hardest part of the job is the nagging supervision. The only good thing is you get to work from home. I've learned to allow the management to think they are right about everything, they will get into an email battle with you even when they are wrong. Poor clients never get their medications on time. Clients engage in health insurance fraud or purposely relapse to stay in the program. The clients are put out on the streets once the insurance stops paying. This company needs to be revamped.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Because they are so short staffed due to people constantly quitting, along with many staff who have zero work ethic and/or lack qualifications means you get tons of experience. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Lack of training,  totally unqualified people at the helm and strong profit motive which pits profits and bottom line over treatment. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressfull, un professional and possibly illegal. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Managing crisis over crisis due to unethical recruitment methods by admissions staff who have virtually no background in treatment and are only hired due to nepotism.

Life is full of challenges, but it’s how you rise to meet them that defines your journey. Every setback is not the end but a setup for a stronger comeback. Each obstacle you face is an opportunity to grow, to learn, and to show the world—and yourself—what you're truly capable of. Success isn't measured by perfection, but by persistence. When things get tough, remember that your dreams don't have an expiration date. Take a deep breath, adjust your course, and keep moving forward.

You are stronger than you know, braver than you feel, and more capable than you think. Even small steps can lead to monumental change. Believe in yourself and trust the process. Embrace the discomfort of growth, because nothing great ever came from staying in your comfort zone. Your potential is limitless—don’t let fear or doubt hold you back. Go out there and chase your greatness!



I worked at 55 Silver and I honestly regret it. The workload was unbearable, with constant overwork, and the way they treated both employees and patients was appalling. After putting in the effort, I was laid off with no clear reason or explanation, which was incredibly frustrating.

What makes it worse is that  a month later after being laid off, they called to offer me my job back, but I’ve heard nothing since then. It’s disappointing how little respect they have for their workers, and it shows in their lack of follow-through.

If you’re considering applying here, I strongly advise you to think twice. It's not worth it overwork, poor treatment, and a lack of appreciation are all you’ll get in return.

I can sit here and say i have been working for 55silver for 2 years now and they are absolutely amazing, they have been so good to me as a employee . I honestly dont know where i would be without them. They really do care about their clients and staff and want to see everyone reach goals and thrive in life!
