ServiceNet reviews about "pay"

Unbelievably disorganized. Corrupt company. Totally FOR profit under the guise of the title “Non-profit”. Chaotic, unstructured homes, poor communication. Clients needs and demands not able to be met due to understaffing. Poor pay rate. Very stressful working conditions that are not even attempted to be managed or regulated. Quick burnout rates and high turnover as a result.

No real room to grow organically

-The agency is relatively large and sometimes one hand does not know what the other hand is doing. -New staff orientation is very general and not specific to one's job. Job-specific training generally occurs on-site and on-the-go. -Many staff do not necessarily have the experience or relevant background to necessarily do this work. More training was often needed, especially regarding how to address certain kinds of situations. -The job is challenging and at times you are in high-risk situations. It can also be emotionally draining. It can be hard to maintain a good work-life balance and burnout/high turnover are a problem. This is kind of a general social work/human services problem and comes with the territory to some degree.

Mediocre pay, inadequate training, less than friendly program directors

The rates are low but this is more of an insurance reimbursement problem. Hopefully this will improve.

upper-level management and folks in administrative positions are out of touch and don't demonstrate any real concern for the quality of life of the majority of people who make this organization run. They refuse to pay a living wage salary to outreach staff i.e.- I've worked full-time for several years and can't afford to stay afloat. They do provide benefits that are on par with other agencies, but this doesn't make up for the low wages that are truly shameful when you learn the annual salary of the CEO.

Low pay - you'll be paid the least amount possible. Your job can be great or a nightmare depending on your PD. The corporate environment gives the impression that this non-profit is solely concerned with profit. Management support can be lacking. I do believe that most employees are in it for the good of the clients, there are too many who see it as just a job. If you have the pleasure of running a program, as long as you meet HRA, HHS, MPB, DMH goals you should enjoy unencumbered autonomy and success. If your contracts fail to meet target, you'll be scrambling and in meetings about boosting revenue. For relief staff, they'll hire anyone with a pulse. Degree differential is honestly laughable.

Low base pay, would bring your pay down if you didn't get med certified, instead of giving a raise if you did.
