Pros

Seem to be in the business of helping people and changing lives.

Cons

Working at the Human Garage was nothing but false promises and disappointment. Some employees were placed on thrown's and deemed exceptional individuals, while others were ridiculed and deemed incompetent. Salaried staff acted as though hourly staff needed to "pay their dues." No leadership in the entire company and no point of accountability was and or ever established for that matter. Seemed as though they relied on the front desk staff to clean up their messes. Those poor girls at the front desk were treated amongst the worst at the Garage and said to be incompetent because they were mostly Latina. Clearly stated judgment toward that department. No regard for employees work experience, they were constantly placing over qualified individuals in basic entry level positions while under-qualified individuals were placed in positions that required years of experience. Any if not all of the therapists are not certified PT's. Could NOT pay their employees on pay day. Sometimes 2-3 weeks before paychecks would be made. Favored employees were paid before others, while checks bounced and peoples livelihoods fell apart. NEVER EVER paid unpaid wages for all the days employees continued to work unpaid. Clients were also treated with the same demeanor. Offering incredible resources, and attention to treatment to those people whom were said to be "somebodies" while the "everyday" folk were not treated with the same curtesy. Many client complaints that were not paid fine attention to, not heard, or even bothered to be followed up with. Bottom line: they base everything on favoritism and nepotism.

Pros

You get exposed to information about fascia and how to work with the body.

Cons

They won't pay you unless you hassle with them, and make it known they would rather not pay you at all (the pleasure of their company should suffice, in their own words). They will try to indoctrinate you. They will burn you out. Personal life boundaries are not respected. There's no actual job titles, because they expect 24/7 availability. If you disagree with their "spiritual beliefs" a "team meeting" will be called to shame you (it doesn't have to be related to work in any way.) Straight up cult.

Pros

The location. Working with a team of people who are all going through the same situation as you. Very kind clients.

Cons

Paychecks bounced on a regular basis, and I was there for 6 months. I found out they had been bouncing for other for an entire year. Did not get paid for training until 6 months later (after I fought for it every day). When I completed my “first tier” for compensation they then said that the “tier” requirements changed and I could not get my raise. I was told I’d receive a certain amount per treatment I gave and was not given that amount. Unfortunately there were staff meetings that never mentioned our support to the clients, but how much more we needed to smile as practitioners in order to keep things happy in the office. The owners were not able to handle confrontation and unfortunately many illegal practices were happening, such as therapists not being certified and withholding money from us for weeks, etc.... I really wanted to work here for the concept and the hope of something great. Unfortunately the people running it were great at the sales tactic but not good with the health and wellness of their own team. :(
