Pros
Hopefully, all the nonsense at this place results in some benefit for the elderly people who use their services. Kind of skeptical, but we can hope.
Cons
Without qualification, I would never had worked at SCS had I known in advance how members of leadership have so little respect for the individuals who work for them.
The culture there is extraordinarily bizarre. When you are interviewed, you are asked personal questions that, in my opinion, cross the line of an employer/employee relationship (probably as a means of building some manipulative form of trust for the employer). When you start working there, everyone is put under pressure to have lunch together at the same time every day; in addition to this grade-school type of social tradition, it can be kind of hard to fit into one's schedule in light of the amount of work and pressure that they put on employees there. These "lunch hour" sessions end up just being another excuse for leadership to dig up more dirt on their employees/associates for spreading gossip. In total, the interview process and daily lunch bit indicate that those in charge have issues with insecurity and feeling the need to control people who work for them.
The pay at SCS is extremely low (which is to be expected as a nonprofit organization), but the organization is so cheap that they barely have any kitchen supplies (like coffee). Yet, leadership puts insane demands on everyone and does not give anybody credit for their hard work/dedication (in fact, the leaders are perfectly willing to go the opposite way by undermining them behind their backs and even try to sabotage careers due to their petty motives).
If you are interested in working in the social services or for a nonprofit, do yourself a favor and find a better place to bring your talents to. I wish that I had.
Thumbs down.
