Upper management doesn't understand the basics of DESC's work. - Peer Specialist DESC Employee Review

Upper management is the worst I have ever seen. Communication is often nebulous or non-existent regarding important programmatic changes. Employees are routinely retaliated against for speaking up on important issues. Management does not understand or take seriously the role of peers within the agency. Upward mobility is limited for those seeking job security, as any supervisory role is non-represented and is viewed more as a scapegoat for upper management to hide behind in the event they make a mistake.
