Pros

Convenient location Nice facility ample parking Treat perks, Bangles on Fridays and pizza parties for staff Some very good employees

Cons

Worked in the Central Area. Extremely poor management. Several people in charge fool around in their area do not help other areas that have a need for help. Management has unrealistic expectations on deadlines being met. There is NO forethought in getting things completed it's a "fly by the seat of your pants" which causes chaos and horrible morale amongst staff. Everyone I knew is looking for another employer. Rules are not enforced across the board. People are called out on certain things while others get away with the infractions. Several co workers are very rude bordering on harassment. Advancement is poor here and it's very obviously bias. Also working hours are ridiculous. There are people who regularly have to stay horrible hours (talking 9, 10 at night) to get work completed because there is no help or solutions offered. Extremely stressful and leads to mistakes that could be avoided.

Pros

The company is mission-driven and focused on supporting vulnerable populations, which gives the work meaning and purpose. It offers stability in a high-demand field and emphasizes training and re-education to support employee growth and retention. Branches are given flexibility to adapt processes locally, and many team members demonstrate strong compassion, teamwork, and commitment to clients.

Cons

There can be a disconnect between corporate policy and frontline realities, with inconsistent enforcement that increases strain on branch staff. A heavy reliance on repeated re-education can weaken accountability and affect morale, while centralized decision-making limits the value of branch-level expertise. Broad role expectations and limited advancement pathways can contribute to burnout for high-performing employees.
