      Pros

      Job is fun, time goes quickly and there is a lot to learn

      Cons

      Management/leadership are either inexperienced or have been there so long they fight change. The CEO is out of touch when it comes to how the company is ran which makes there company rhetoric a little nauseating. Communication is a big down fall for this company even though they love to say they promote transparency, you won’t find that here. They operate very much like Russian bots, tell everyone something different so everyone is confused and no one can be held accountable. Accountability or integrity is hard to come by here.

      Pros

      The upper management at Lifesprk is incredible, and they are growing so much there are so many opportunities. It will be exciting to see this company grow.

      Cons

      As a fast growing company of course there are growing pains, I foresee them being taken care of as they move forward.

      Pros

      Making a difference with the elderly population

      Cons

      experience with LifeSpark. I’ve returned to work with them three times (pleading for my return), always out of a love for the residents and a commitment to providing compassionate care. I have 15 years of CNA experience and am currently building my practice as an Ayurvedic Practitioner. I hold high standards for safe, ethical care. Sadly, LifeSpark has consistently shown a pattern of disorganization, unsafe practices, and lack of respect for professional boundaries and legal scope of practice. To those considering working for LifeSpark, especially at Urbana Senior Living — proceed with caution. If you’re a CNA or other licensed worker, be aware that you may be asked to do things outside your legal scope. If you raise concerns, be prepared for possible retaliation or indifference. I sincerely hope this company reevaluates how it supports its frontline staff and makes resident care and staff safety a true priority.
