JPA Health Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Where should I begin? Well let's start with the fact that the place is overworked and understaffed. I was warned of this on DAY ONE that many people are burnt out due to the work load. JPA Account Directors will have you working on an RFP KNOWING full well that JPA won't win the business because they don't have the capabilities to do what the clients need. There is high turnover rate. In my first months of working at JPA, I've seen SEVEN PEOPLE leave. There is NO work life balance. I was required to work on a holiday, over weekends and at night to get my large workload done. The culture in JPA is TOXIC. Lots of blame games, throwing people under the bus, gossip and people desperately trying to cover their own behinds. There is no trust, no cohesion and no one has your back. The worst of this toxic culture is what I experienced from a Director on my specific team who blamed his team to leadership, had no backbone and no structure with his pointless meetings where the team sat in awkward silence. This director also let his implicit bias lead him to make insulting assumptions and affect how he spoke to and managed black women on his team. The Director often assumed that women with at least a decade of experience each didn't know how to use programs that are essential to their jobs and that they didn't know how to do basic tasks. For example, this director offered to "teach" me how to schedule a meeting in outlook--something I've done countless times throughout my career. The director set me up for failure by inundating me with work which required me to work over a major holiday. He then began to criticize and micromanage me engaging in a psychologically abusive campaign of demoralizing nitpicking, dangling my job security in front of me and straight up telling easily disprovable lies. The director continued applying this psychological pressure and micromanagement under the guise of "helping me" until he finally pushed me out of the agency all together."
