Pros

When I first started at the company, I was very enthused by the mission and happy to be working in a space I was passionate about (senior care). A few years ago, there were inspiring people on the leadership team and the opportunity to get involved in various projects. There also used to be learning and growth opportunities (however I have not felt that any of this applies for at least the past 1-2 years). Snacks + lunch is a nice touch for employees. Neat, high-tech offices.

Cons

-No growth trajectory. No one listens to employee feedback and in order to find growth as an employee, you need to ask over and over. Even then, it's unlikely they'll do anything but put it off, make false promises. -Upper management being brought in that seem to have no knowledge or previous experience in health care or geriatrics. -This company does not INVEST in its employees! A couple times a year, without fail, there is huge turnovers (firings). I have never seen this much turnover in my life, or even close to it, at any other company I've worked at. No sense of job security when nearly entire teams are let go every few months. The best companies find great talent, help them to reach their potential and do everything they can to keep the people they hire- I have not seen this at Honor and know many of my colleagues feel the same. -False promises by upper management. They will say one thing and do another - promise employees raises, promotions etc- then keep them on the hook and never follow through, even after a positive round of reviews. -Overworked employees with no work-life balance. Quite cliquey atmosphere, leadership/management definitely lets off an air of favoritism. -Classic bait and switch- jobs and teams change so often that it's unlikely you're doing what you were hired to do once a few months has gone by.

Pros

-Great pay/benefits -Company culture is great and very diverse. -Mission is great -It's a job where I personally feel I can make a difference in our clients' lives. -The majority of my co-workers are willing to go out of their way to help when things get chaotic. -Lunch and snacks/drinks provided.

Cons

-Communication all around is lacking, even within the same teams. One manager will tell you one thing and another will tell you the complete opposite. People work over one another without checking to see if something is being worked before starting on it. Clients complain about the lack of communication they receive in regards to staffing because we're quick to staff a visit but no follow up occurs. Communication as a whole needs to improve. -HR provides clear expectations with Care Pro staff, including providing a handbook. This is not the case for "HQ" employees and it's highly needed, especially with the amount of new staff we always seem to have. -Requests for support feels like it falls on deaf ears. I have expressed the need for help for literal months now and nothing has changed. This has been brought up in my 1:1's frequently as well. -Recent layoffs after a year of, what felt like, constant hiring has created a very odd climate within the Frontline. -Constant changes to workflows and within the leads/management team changes insanely fast. I have been with the company 2 years and on my 4th manager. Makes it very difficult to form any kind of "relationship" with the manager, much less build trust or make one feel comfortable in bringing sensitive matters/concerns to management. -While Honor aims at being transparent, they fall short. We have an entire wiki to assist with how to handle issues with clients/Care Pros but you can't find that information about your own job and that is highly odd to me. I have never worked for any corporation/healthcare related job where expectations were not only made clear, but could be found somewhere in writing. -Unless you want to merge into being a lead/manager or move into client management from Frontline, there is no real room for growth. -In respect to the Frontline Leads; it very much feels like the majority were promoted too fast within their employment and, as such, micromanage everything. -Frontline employees often have to deal with high stress emergency/escalations however Honor does not offer any type of stress management training at all. It's just expected that you recover quickly and move on to your next call/issue. You may get a "shoutout" but you won't be offered any means of knowing how to deal with the stress that builds up over time after taking emergency after emergency through the day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback. You and your colleagues are doing critical work to care for our clients and their families-- and that work is appreciated. We hear you loud and clear on the need for better communication and expectation setting in the Care organization and we're working hard to add more layers of support and training at all levels. The People team has added more HR Business Partners serving Care, in hopes of receiving and resolving feedback like what you shared here. If you're comfortable doing so, please bring your feedback to your HRBP directly so that we can help address your specific situation.
