Elara Caring reviews

It’s all about how much money they can make. There is no raises, poor pay. Everyone is stressed and overworked. Only full time employees get benefits which the benefits are not that great either. Good luck trying to paid correctly as payroll keeps making mistakes. Sometimes you don’t get paid at all. Many people live paycheck to paycheck. Good luck paying your bills if you are one of them. CEO comments all the time that are easy to replace. There is no communication. Management makes decision without thinking and if an employee gives feedback they are label as a complainer and a problem. Chances are you will be let go if you do speak up. Promotions are given to employees that are not qualified, they are given to their favorites. Management take over departments that don’t have the knowledge and skills. This is not growing pains that they are going through this is just greed and poor management. The merger and consolidation of the three companies was a mistake and the management taking over departments is a huge mistake but look luck trying to tell them that.

At the beginning Great Lakes felt like a family type atmosphere and very patient centered and staff centered within the last months we are steering away from that with our recent merge and it’s becoming a financial driven corporation. The recent merge has caused employees to lose a sense of security in their jobs. A lack of security can cause an extreme decline in morale around the office and out in the field which will cause an decrease in employee retention which a lot of staff feels as though that is the goal which is to purge... we have remained out of the loop of what the future of Great Lakes or should I say elara is going to be and that is not good business practice for a company that is striving to maintain a peaceful transition that has been letting go of our friends, colleagues, and seasoned staff weekly without so much as a notice. Trimming the fat is necessary and is needed in any merge but not making staff aware does not make for the greatest welcome wagon into a new company and does not make the survivors of this merge confidant you can run us with integrity... signed, a loyal and almost former employee of the once wonderful Great Lakes Caring...
