Pros

There are no pros besides the seniors

Cons

-Always short staffed-Below national and state average pay- Spectrum is terrible i have worked for them for 6 months in ohio and it feel's like high school all over again.The ED is willing to give me employee of the month award as i work 6 days a week and even acknowledges my work's better than good and my attendance is great yet won't even consider me for a promotion and my director position has been vacated several times.Of course they don't even inform me that they refuse to interview me until the new person starts.Also the regional manager exhibits the same behavior.When put on the spot i get "your works good,your attendance is good,the resident's love you....your just not ready". In other words i don't kiss enough you know what.

Pros

Attempts to provide stimulation and purpose for the Resident's lives.

Cons

Pretends to be person centered, but is actually just as corporate as the next Assisted Living center. Poor management in my experience. No room for growth.
