Lack of Trust and Incredibly Poor Management
Pros
It's a place to work. If you just need a job and not concerned about pay or access to healthcare, then it'll do. Just be looking elsewhere if you have the mental, emotional, and physical capacity.
Cons
I want to make it clear that everything mentioned below was addressed with management and/or HR more than once and no changes were made in the last 12 months. Zero structured training and no training materials, very little manager communication, manager is gone frequently and suddenly without warning. There is very little work life balance, to the point that we're all stressed out outside of work because of how taxing this job is. Had to take on multiple additional responsibilities because of poor staffing and management decisions. There is no support, even if we ask for help. We had someone leave after 6 months because they were being bullied by other caregivers and unit managers, crying every day, and hardly anything meaningful happened. It was frankly heartbreaking and awful. We were promised to go hybrid but never did, and even had to reapply for our jobs that were listed as hybrid. After 6 months, we've been told that will not be happening. The office environment is very poor. We have zero basic kitchen supplies despite asking for it multiple times (the answer we get is "it's not in the budget"). Bugs are frequent. Security guards are constantly an issue with being creepy and makes the environment feel rather unsafe. The "raise" structure is awful. Only 3% which is for "cost of living" but this doesn't even meet inflation any more, so really it's a decrease. It's no wonder multiple unions are striking and picketing.
