Y'all, jobs in mental health are tough jobs with a high risk of emotional fatigue and burnout.

Company Structure
Ellie is a socially responsible for-profit business, which allows us to be flexible and responsive to our community's needs.
Many mental health and wellness-focused companies are non-profits or government agencies, which rely on the general public, grants, or large donors for funding.
This model often results in little creativity and lower compensation for employees, promoting a work culture that just makes people feel "blah."
Feeling blah doesn't help employees stay motivated, engaged, or even in their jobs for a very long time! So 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?
