Pros
Decent benefits, regular pay increases and bonuses, flexibility in scheduling. Helping others and making a difference every day. Helping grieving families in their time of need. Great experience and training for your next job.
Cons
Starting pay is quite low. Several members of management are unacceptable, especially the current director. He is constantly berating employees and threatening their jobs. Has no people skills and makes jokes that are inappropriate and insulting. There is much favortism in the department and the mistakes of the chosen ones are overlooked, while others are written up. Inappropriate conversations go on every day, but they are selectivity overlooked, depending on who does the talking. I have seen many bright, eager, hard-working employees quit due to eventual frustration and disallusionment. Turnover is extremely high. It's a shame they cannot complete such an important mission while simultaneously treating their employees with compassion and resepct.
