We are treated like inmates! The good pay isn't worth being treated this way! Currently looking for a new job! - Registered Nurse CoreCivic Employee Review

Pros

Pay is good that is all.

Cons

They will treat you like a criminal! They spend more time trying to catch their employees doing something wrong than actually taking care of/watching the inmates. Corrupt management. PTO is HORRIBLE. Forced overtime. Understaffed and they don't care. I've never been treated more poorly as an employee! RUN RUN RUN away from this company. They try to make up for their bad treatment with an occasional pizza/coffee/ hot dog etc... event. I also experienced a whole lot of reverse racism.

Pros

CC Uses cutting-edge Technologies, which is good experience for resume building; many of the Teams are collaborative; interesting work and you can believe in company goals.

Cons

Director and Manager level mgmt at corporate here do not provide guidance on projects. There is a lot of turnover on data projects because new employees are thrown into the deep end and then just blamed if results are not as expected. CC really needs more hands-on project oversight. There are also behavioral and anger issues with a couple long-time ppl as well, and this is both exhausting and (sometimes) outright humiliating. They need to treat new people better.
