No shortage of work to be done

-head office will just keep piling the work at you -when you can’t keep up, it’s your fault, even though you’re doing 4 people’s work -you will work WAY more than your 35-40hrs, and be told that happens when you’re a coordinator. The fact that this is illegal doesn’t seem to matter -you will be told you have to be on a committee, and it’s often expected on your own time -you will be threatened. -You will be told you’re being fired if you can’t meet unrealistic expectations that are thrown last minute at you -head office gossips about EVERYONE.

Trying to re-build a positive and healthy work environment takes all members participating. This is a bit exhausting for the 90% willing, when 10% want to hang on to negativity and toxicity. -previous negative reviews on forums often don’t even have comments applicable to current staff, however, the reviews are out there appearing like it’s fact when it’s not
