Helping others until you burn out - Case Specialist Community Violence Solutions Employee Review

Rewarding career and great company

The commute from sacramento to San Pablo is far

CVS is a self-described feminist organization. There is a lot of effort put towards self-care with retreats, three mental health days a year (you can call in whenever you need without having to give a reason), and even International Women's Day off. They are very family friendly and flexible with scheduling to accomodate staff needs. The staff is also very supportive and sweet.

Not a ton of room for professional advancement. No natural mentors willing to step up and take you to the next level. Its pretty much a "do as you're told" environment. The board (in 2011) was also very conservative and not in line with ideology of management and staff.
