Pros

The woman I worked with

Cons

Everything Sandy the ceo is arrogant and feels the need to have 2 secretaries while laying off many employees sandy and Dan, the CFO, each have large enough salaries while working for "non-profit" to have shore homes in some of the nicest areas yet refuse to take pay cuts in order to avoid lay offs Sandy and Dan do not appear to care one bit for the clients they are supposed to be rallying for yet care immensely about themselves Such a shame because I would NEVER recommend the placement of a client to any of Elwyns services because of what I was witnessed to There is also a lot of shady money dealings within this organization I would not only not recommend this company to anyone to work for but I also would STRONGLY advise against any charitable donations...they shut homes down yet the executives get a 450$ a month car allowance.. a little fishy in my book for a "non-profit" agency

Pros

I was able to work with some people who would communicate effectively, as well as collaborate with no issues and problems.

Cons

Hmm were should I start- Poor poor leadership. Management is top heavy. Many of these people have been there so long, as a matter of fact to long, they need new leadership with better and new ideas. They also tend to reward bad behavior, yes this is a thing. Poor and bad attitudes, unprofessionalism, unruly, and disruptive, but they tend to get promoted and get raises, just for clarity, they were not that good at their job. There were always complaints against these people and there was no consequence for the poor and bad behaviors. They are very cliquish and sneaky. I did not enjoy working there. So, whoever is planning on applying, I would think about it first before applying.
