Aegis Treatment Centers LLC

I worked there for six months, at which point I was informed by the Clinical Director — who’s since had the same fate — that my contract would be terminated in a few weeks. (Perhaps he thought that by cutting me, he’d save his job, but it didn’t work.) The top tier of Aegis is only interested in making as much money as possible. The on-​line counselors, reception and medical staff do a wonderful job under extremely stressful circumstances. Their pay is abysmal. The on-​site Manager has less education than the interns. I was hired as a consultant, but four weeks into the job, my job tasks were taken from me. This meant that patients were being treated without the input of an on-​site licensed clinician — not ethical or responsible practices. But it meant they saved money by shaving my hours.
I really enjoyed getting to know the staff and patients. They’re a caring, bright, group that deserves much better treatment from agency management. Moreover, they need better treatment in order to survive.
