Pressley Ridge reviews

Terrible communication between team, team leaders, and supervisors. Breaks required by law are rarely given, resulting in you working 16 straight hours. Little to no sleep during residential (overnight) shifts. ZERO training on procedures (paper work, case notes, transporting youth, etc). Schedule can permanently change without your authorization or notification. The sales pitch by staff made the job seem better than what it really is. Understaffed, little support from MTCs (supervisors), inconsistency with adherence to policy and procedure, and the clients (troubled teenagers) are there not to work on bettering themselves but solely because of a court order and agreed to terms so they don't go to higher level detentions.

Low pay Unprofessional Directors Back-biting, gossiping supported rather than addressed by management No direction for supervisors but many, many unspoken expectations Expectations of supervisors' relationship with staff not role modeled in any way by supervisors managersm(i.e. managers had poor relational skills but expected wonderful relations of supervisors with their staff) Directors handle issues with supervisors staff without including supervisor, encouraging employees to ignoremthe management structure No concern for health and well being of staff sufferingmfrom serious afflictions Double standards Directors change minds contamtly without sharing with superisors and then get angry when supervisormdoesn't know Absolutely NO interest in improving clinical ability of staff Absolutely NO attempts to work with staff not meeting expectations or even let them know they require improvement Barely any and poor outcome measures which are easy to manipulate to make programs look good
