Pros

The restidents. They were the only reason i enjoy this type of setting.

Cons

I was hired on as a baker but was to serve lunch and dinner down the hall. Also did 12 hour days on weekends because of being short which was ok at first but the person stepping in should be sou chef or head chef not the new person. Come in the one day and the day before the dessert wasn't made that was on menu and they expected me to make it plus next day desserts on top of serving lunch and dinner. Their full time hours if 56 so the chances of overtime was not likely.

We are thrilled to read that you enjoyed getting to know our residents. They have led amazing lives and are truly a joy. Spending time with them is very rewarding. Thank you for recognizing their value and appreciating their life experiences. The culinary job description lists job responsibilities including food preparation, cooking, serving and clean up. Prospective co-workers are provided with job descriptions so they understand what is expected of them to help deliver high quality services to our residents. There are certain functions in every job that people enjoy the most, and it would be great if we could focus on just the fun stuff. However, we work as a team and that means working together to make life better for our residents. Best of luck to you.

Pros

I have been at Country Meadows for over 17 years, as have many of my teammates. One of the things I value most is working for a truly family-owned company where the owners are actively involved in the day-to-day operations. They genuinely care for both employees and residents.

Cons

There is a lot to do in a day's work, however it is very rewarding.

We are thrilled to hear that you appreciate the family-owned aspect of our company culture. When residents and their loved ones are welcomed on campus and supported by co-workers like you, they get a glimpse into how we genuinely care for our residents as if they are an extension of our own families. Like you said, it is a busy role but surely a rewarding one when we have privilege to care for our residents! Thank you for all you do and for dedicating so much for your career to supporting our residents.
