Cons
-neighboring apartment complex tenants have pointed guns at staff while driving down same road If you’re BIPOC and bilingual: RUUUN, bilingual nonwhite staff are making 3-5k less than white staff members. -shelter advocates are treated as the slaves of the organization by everyone dumping their work on them and the crisis hotline -Lowest PTO earned ever (3hrs per check). For salary employees that will work sure, but shelter employees work ten hours shifts and it takes forever to accrue enough PTO to take time off. Ridiculously low wages for direct staff while Lisa the CEO makes $160k-180k a year and can afford trips to Cuba Extremely high case load—prepare to kiss your energy and work-life balance goodbye and to have management blame you for not doing enough self care or not doing enough trauma stewardship activities. Prepare for the worst HR interactions—the executive team is full of white women who are robots and don’t give a cr-p about you as a human being: lord forbid you have a disability and need an accommodation, don’t bother asking for help because the only answer you’ll get is what they CAN’T do for you. Literally the only DEI action steps I saw here include hiring BIPOC contractors, and hiring BIPOC small business to cater to the events. Literally very little cultural representation in staff. Prepare to attend too many meetings that could have been emails. Prepare to have your ideas shot down and denied. Prepare, if you’re a brown woman, to be called “negative” when you express any concerns that may seem like you’re criticizing Rosebrooks—you’ll be the recipient of racist management in this specific position.
