Our compensation is very much shaped by 1) All our money comes from insurance companies 2) who never raise their rates 3) and deliberately hire troglodytes with no idea what's going on to fuck you over 4) while committing actual fraud in their contracting practices 5) and executing cartel behavior 6) to the extent that they threaten you with price-fixing if you compare notes on your contract compared to someone else's up the street We have an entire industry that expects families to pay thousands of dollars a month and then acts like you're stealing from them if you try to use their services. It sucks. PS. Square Payroll works really well until you try to integrate benefits packages. Then it eats shit. We have a payroll company that we switched to because the guys Square partners with (Guideline) suck so hard... but we still pay our birth assistants through Square for simplicity's sake.
