Pros

1. Flexible most of the time 2. Individuals are amazing

Cons

1. When you first start everything is good and upper management is willing to bend but then you put your time in and everything changes. When your fed up and put your notice in, that’s when they try to offer more money or anything to get you to stay. 2. Nothing stays in one room. Everyone knows what is going on in your life in a matter of minutes. 3. There are definitely politics in upper management and people will throw you under the bus just to get a head. 2 recently promoted individuals talked crap about their admins and exec admins when they were directors and then they were promoted and all of a sudden better than anyone else below them. These admins both told directors to stay away from certain directors as there is a lot of drama. Surprising the drama ended when they were promoted. Super low class and toxic. 4. Don’t want to pay overtime so managers/ directors get stuck working but when admins are up to work they will offer insane bonuses so they don’t have to work. There is always a budget until admins are on the hook. 5. You do not receive a raise as a staff and management does not see their raise until at least 6 months after its due. 6. If upper management do not want you to advance then you will be written up at that time a promotion is available even if it is 6 months after the incident. 7. Management with behavioral homes do not advance only Management with medical homes only receive promotions.

Pros

I loved the people we served and all of my co-workers even the ones that worked other shifts. Our program manager was a GREAT person to work with and she is very dedicated to her job. Easy to get extra hours if you really need it by training at other houses and my particular house was a relaxed working environment with great team players.

Cons

Company DOES NOT care about their staff. They don’t value good staff and dont show appreciation for the hard work they do. We constantly here what we are doing wrong rather than how great we are actually doing which is why people on come to work for a check. Under paid, no room for advancement, and there are so many cliques in upper management that they discuss other staff’s personal business and it spreads around like wild fire. They rush us to clean the house quickly just to pass inspections and expect us to wear happy faces (faking) to impress those who walk in for tours, licensing etc. Takes them forever to approve requested time off even if given a good month in advance, you cant trade shifts unless “cost effective” yet they’ll use you to pick up shifts that no one wants or that someone called in for. Absolutely no time off for holidays with your family and if you’re scheduled to work a holiday you aren’t even allowed to have the weekend of the holiday off or your facing termination. Basically everything centers around termination so most people walk on eggs shells just to have a job to feed their family. Occurrence policy sucks, and NO ONE in that office gets off their lazy butts to even work a shift in any of the homes and connect with the individuals whom by the way has this hell whole operating from day to day!!!
