Pros

I had some great co-workers.

Cons

I noticed a lot of discrimination and racism being part of the recruiting team. This should NOT be happening in 2022, I was shocked at some of the stuff I would hear. Management is disorganized, culturally incompetent, racist, and insensitive. There were constant changes and my co-workers and I never felt appreciated or heard. In addition, people were getting fired or leaving constantly. The workers that were treated the worst were the caregivers. They could never reach anyone to get help on simple things and management did not care to help them. I felt bad LYING to caregivers about all these "benefits" we offered while recruiting.

Pros

The mission is meaningful, and many employees genuinely care about the clients and caregivers they serve. There are talented people throughout the organization who work hard and do their best despite significant challenges. Remote work flexibility is also a positive.

Cons

The company struggles with consistency, accountability, and communication. Priorities frequently change, decisions are often made without considering operational impact, and employees are expected to adapt with little guidance or support. There is a noticeable culture of favoritism. Opportunities, visibility, flexibility, and influence often appear to be driven more by relationships with leadership than by performance or results. Employees are not always held to the same standards, which creates frustration and damages trust. The organization relies heavily on employees to compensate for process gaps, staffing challenges, and system issues rather than addressing root causes. As a result, burnout is common and turnover remains a challenge. Frequent restructuring and shifting priorities make it difficult to build momentum, retain institutional knowledge, or execute long-term strategies effectively. Employees are often asked to do more with less while receiving limited transparency around decisions that directly impact their work. For a company that depends on dedicated employees to drive results, there is often a disconnect between leadership messaging and the day-to-day employee experience.
