Lets start from the top corporate sees you as something they have to get as much out of as quick as possible . Most new hires do not stay in this company only people with no other choice stay with this company and weather the abuse. 

Administration such as supervisors are non-existent when a problem arises and will try to make the problem seem as if it was your own fault. such as clients not being on forms to be allowed out which would be due to administrations lack of care for the clients.

Asking for your paid time off is seen as the worst possible thing to do if your not high end staff. I have had many instances of my time off being approved months in advance just to find out days before that they changed their minds about allowing your days off.

Training is never hands on its all power points from like 2010. Training must be done on your own free time because you will be always busy when at work. 

You will not help or guidance from co-workers or supervisors until they see that you have done something wrong and at that point they treat it as something punitive when you just want to learn how to do the job right.

Many times other workers will call out and responsible workers will be taken advantage of and be forced to come in on days off and while at work your co-workers will try to pawn off your work as their own and will sell you out the moment something goes wrong and to cover their own backs.

It is also assumed that you must know how to do things off the bat my first day here my co-workers were not happy that some one new started because they would have to show them how to do the job.

YOU WILL NEVER RECEIVE A RAISE NEVER.

Honestly a pretty unsafe work environment.

Let me start off by saying that I began working with this company October 2018 and I received training one year and one month later after having to request it. This training came after myself another a former Assessor outed management about their lack of support and fraudulent billing. Unfortunately when the other Assessor left, I became a target because of being so vocal. Mind you, I shared concerns that I had which back fired on me with management conjuring up something just to write me up. I refused to sign it for many reasons, one reason was because I was the one who brought notice to the issues of billing and scheduling. Why would I sign a write up about something that they are doing wrong? Not only was I mislead in an interview about a bonus that I would receive and I signed a contract for, it was all a LIE! They created a bonus contract that even if I worked 365 days straight, I would not be able to receive the bonus.  I have witnessed three Assessors leave in one year due to poor management, training, unreasonable work expectations and lack of communication. New management was hired and what they care about is NUMBERS not anything else. If I have three clients scheduled my last hour of work, I must see them; regardless of what I have to do in my personal life. I complained about having to stay later and not being able to make it to my second job and the response I received was "well not to be rude but we are concerned about our business (banyan)." Why am I still here? Because I love the actual work I do for clients, not this business. I can go on and on.

This company will do anything to squeeze the last bit of juice out of any of its employees. The time off is terrible and not commensurate with the work done. The health insurance is laughable, good luck being able to afford going to the doctor. The environment is ruled by favoritism and punitive action if you are  not part of the in club. Supervisors throw tantrums and attack staff when they feel like it, sometimes unprovoked just to prove they are in charge. It feels like high school at all levels full of little cliques. If you want to succeed you need to kiss up to your superiors. There is no communication between programs, leading to constant in-fighting. Nothing ever really gets resolved, issues are brought up and they are swept under the rug. At the end of the day the patients are the ones who suffer the most. Staff is exhausted, demoralized, underpaid, and under appreciated. So most  just come to work to be here, get the minimum done, and go home. The top of the company demands so much from the bottom, when they are the first to behave inappropriately or like children throwing tantrums. There is no respect for anyone. Glad I'm no longer there.

Banyan is a place of equal opportunity for all.
Strong Management base and team work (division of labor).
Good rapport/communication between the management board and entire staff/team.
A place of personal/self development and room for career growth.
Love the sense of service/value added as our day to day work scope provides the platform for Impacting and transforming lives.
Clients recovery of real identity/personality  and reconnecting back to the society is our primary aim.
Although most a times some clients can act funny and aggressively towards the staff on duty, but the team have been trained on how to manage excess emotional outburst of clients and strategies to de-escalate disputes between clients with out bayas; However,  there are disciplinary measures the management have put in place to control/monitor and minimize such behaviors and to caution defaulters.
The most exciting aspect of the company is the culture of recognizing, celebrating and rewarding good performance of outstanding team member.



This company has no empathy nor respect for their mental health therapists; they expect therapists to see 25 clients per week and assigns  you over 40 clients! They are condescending in the way they address their therapists like if we are stupid. Their meetings and supervisions are a space for you to be scolded and to be treated as if you are not a thinking individual. Very degrading and old fashioned. There is not real clinical supervision besides just wanting to know how many hours you are billing per week. Salary is low if you think the amount of hours one ends up working per week (around 50) and the amounts of clients and paperwork (online) you are require to submit. Mileage reimbursement is also another downside in which you get paid $150 per month! Health insurance is expensive. I don't recommend this agency to no ONE!

If you like sitting and watching up to 32 patients on two tvs then this could be the job for you they say no more than 16 patients but most of time you had over 20 if you like not being able to use your pto hours when you call off then this is the job for you if you don’t care about not being able to use pto on a weekend that you are scheduled to work then this is a job for you and not being able to request that weekend to be added with your vacation than this is the job for you if you like trying to chart while keeping your eyes on your patients than this is the job for you if you like having to wait for your co- worked to come back from break, lunch or bathroom so you can go than this is the job for you

Company hires new graduates. Tells you you will have to do a minimum of 25 face-to-face per week and 15 hours documentation. Reality is you get over 40 clients in your caseload and work more than 12 hours per day. Company is not interested in patient/client care. They are only interested in how many services you bill. Company just laid-off more than half of their employees because of poor management decisions. Therapy services have been suspended for over 400 clients. Company has laid-off more than half of its employees. Do not waste your time here and be careful with what they offer. This company does not have a positive future and it’s sad because it’s a social services agency.

I started with this company because corrections was something I always wanted to do but working for this company has gave me so many different type of emotions. No hands on training except how to do count and call to verify, no raise, paid little to nothing when such risk is over your head, everything is your fault, no understanding from managment, staff tell on you faster than they tell on a inmate, very unprofessional when situations are extremely out of control, upper management dont listen to no one, staff is treated like inmates and so much more. If you are looking for a good job with less headache that dont even includes the duty itself find another job placement.

Communication between employees and management is never clear and no direction in the work place .
They are extremely disorganized and most of the time supplies that are necessary are not available.
If you are self motivated and positive you can always find coworkers willing to help but most of the time everyone is too busy running around trying to get their own job done since they are short staffed in every department 

Working days was always busy at Banyan Health Systems. I learned a lot about the mental health community in South Florida. Banyan has a multi-cultural workforce, and they care a lot about cultural competence. Every body who holds a degree is welcome, it doesn't matter who you are or where you come from. BHS provides the best training for employees. IT some time didn't work well. Excellent co-worker. BHS always is trying to get the best in terms of evidence based practice on mental health and substance abuse. I will always be grateful to Banyan
