Pros

First, of course is the kids. The students behaviors are hard sometimes, but the kids are still awesome. Overtime is available as needed, so I don't work a second job for my family. The staff I work with are nice and have worked here a while. I've learned a lot. The top management know who I am, and treat me kindly. The person at the top responds to question even at night or on weekends and never make me feel like I'm bothering them. Other staff I work with also say that she responds quickly if they email or call. I worked here all during covid and the managers and families showed their appreciation. I feel good about what I do.

Cons

Sometime the schedule is hard. Can't always count on leaving on time, but it's just to cover the kids for a while. Sometimes the ac asking me to stay late or work extra could be less bossy sounding and nicer about it, but it's not all of them, just like one.

Pros

The organization actively supports career growth by sponsoring postgraduate programs and providing continuous learning opportunities. Current staff are given priority and are strongly encouraged to apply first for internal job openings. The workplace fosters a multicultural environment and promotes diversity, welcoming employees from all walks of life.

Cons

On certain days, staffing levels may be low, so employees should be prepared to be mandated to remain on shift for extended hours as needed.

Pros

If you want to work in special education, it's a great place to start getting experience. They prefer to promote internally so there's lots of opportunity for growth. Unlimited overtime so if you really need extra money you can pick up as many hours as you want. The kids are awesome to work with. Most staff are really great. You feel like you're making a difference.

Cons

The scheduling often doesn't line up with what time you're scheduled. Very often you'll have to wait a half hour to an hour after your scheduled time before you're able to leave. It's paid but still, it sucks if you have to be somewhere after work but are stuck waiting for someone else to get there. Also the insurance sucks

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. The important work that we do at Evergreen supports the lives of so many individuals and families in need, and we’re happy to hear that this work has impacted you. To ensure the safety and wellbeing of our students, our Staffing Policy mandates that there is always a sufficient level of personnel on duty to fulfil the Minimum Staffing Requirements. The required staffing ratio must meet specified levels, which can sometimes result in staff from the previous shift remaining on duty due to circumstances that are beyond our control.
