I’m a mental health provider at a clinic. A few weeks ago, out of the blue, my employer asked me to sign a contract for a year. I didn’t get hired under a contract. So, this is all new to me. The contract has some ridiculous clauses, including requiring me to give a 90-day notice if I ever want to leave for another job. Essentially, this prevents me from getting another job for an entire year. All medical providers got very generous raises to their pay. So, of course, they all signed without a problem. I didn’t get a raise. Two weeks ago, I made an attempt to negotiate the contract with the CMO and CEO. They basically said “we can’t guarantee anything, but we’ll present it to the Board.” Today, they called asking me to submit the contract by tomorrow. They didn’t bother to follow-up with the negotiations. I currently moonlight as an online therapist. I’m thinking of resigning from my day job and go full time with my side online gig. I just find it a little scary going off on my own 100%. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.
