Great staff who are very fun to work with, and the residents can make or break your shift.
Cons
Not enough pay for what the job required, never praised for a job well done, very stressful environment, too much drama, and always asking to stay late or come in early or pick up shifts on your days off.

Thank you for your four years of service when on our team. Our staff and residents definitely make the job worthwhile. Glad you enjoyed those highlights too.
In July we are launching more competitive wages for all front-line staff including Dining Associates which will help us be more comparable to (and in many cases, exceed) those in our industry and even outside. We do appreciate all our co-workers in every role, especially if they have pitched in for someone who is out for vacation, sick, etc. We understand at times serving and supporting seniors can be difficult, but it also can be very rewarding—and from what we hear from other team members, it is more times fulfilling than not which is why they choose to stay. We hope you have found another rewarding opportunity and wish you the best.

I have been at Country Meadows for over 17 years, as have many of my teammates. One of the things I value most is working for a truly family-owned company where the owners are actively involved in the day-to-day operations. They genuinely care for both employees and residents.
Cons
There is a lot to do in a day's work, however it is very rewarding.

We are thrilled to hear that you appreciate the family-owned aspect of our company culture. When residents and their loved ones are welcomed on campus and supported by co-workers like you, they get a glimpse into how we genuinely care for our residents as if they are an extension of our own families. Like you said, it is a busy role but surely a rewarding one when we have privilege to care for our residents! Thank you for all you do and for dedicating so much for your career to supporting our residents.
It is a great company to work for. The company cares for its residents and co-workers.
Cons
Can't really think of any! It is a great place to work!
