[QUOTE="foreverbull, post: 19239516, member: 716831"] I wish I could give you info from personal experience, but since none have spoken up about your original question, I can at least speak to Kaiser's reputation and practice from word of mouth of a few psychologists who worked for Kaiser in the past. Kaiser doesn't have a good reputation for treating psychologists/therapists well. One former Kaiser psychologist reported that therapy sessions were half an hour at most and clients were scheduled back to back all day (seeing something like 12-15 clients per day), but this was prior to Kaiser being fined millions for poor mental health practices and being told to make more efforts to reduce waitlists by hiring more clinicians (Kaiser tried to keep their therapist numbers down and overbook practitioners with clients essentially). A few articles: [URL='http://khn.org/news/kaiser-permanente-cited-again-for-mental-health-access-problems/']Kaiser Permanente Cited — Again — For Mental Health Access Problems[/URL] [URL]http://www.sfexaminer.com/kaiser-permanente-is-retaliating-against-mental-health-whistleblowers/[/URL] I don't know if things are better for postdocs/psychologists currently or not. If you are still interested in applying, make sure you ask plenty of questions to get a sense of the current work environment/daily schedule there when interviewing, especially from current postdocs.
