Pros

Benefits are better than at some comparable agencies. You're certainly given a large number of sick/vacation days which is not to be discounted.

Cons

I remember when working for Gateway engendered some sense of self pride or at least agency-pride. Gateway once felt almost family-like (a feeling that is now discouraged). There is no sense now that management cares for employees (as heads roll weekly - sometimes entire departments "roll" in one fell swoop and staff is never given an explanation as if the frequency of this was not depleting morale). Even worse, there is little real sense that management cares about the care clients are receiving with insufficient staff and no professional supervision. It is a sad place to work, with no seeming prospects of there being a "brighter day". The negative attitude of employees has little to do with a lack of understanding of a business model. It stems rather from not being listened to and being de-valued as you sit back and watch clients also taking second place to corporate profit (which seems ephemeral). If you care about yourself, if you care about the people you work with or for, don't work here.

Pros

Good benefits, well-established in the community, however we are quickly losing our reputation. No one wants to do business with us because we burn bridges like a kid playing with matches. Clients are suffering, clients are being neglected, we are not putting families first by any stretch of the imagination.

Cons

Everything. This is the worst place to work in social services in the state of Alabama. If you are on the fence about coming to work here, stay away. There are better opportunities out there and I am looking for one of my own.
