  • Employee Experience

  • We take care of our people.

Happy employees do better work and provide better client care. Our clients depend on us cultivating an environment where our employees can thrive so that they can thrive too.

  • Company Structure

  • Ellie is a socially responsible for-profit business, which allows us to be flexible and responsive to our community’s needs. This model often results in little creativity and lower compensation for employees, promoting a work culture that just makes people feel “blah.” We created a new model: one that puts flexibility, innovative decision-making, creativity, and our people first, while remaining a socially conscious and responsible for-profit business focused on changing how we treat mental health.

  • In short, we’re just people helping people. Wanna join the herd?
