Resigning from this company was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my career. - Family Centered Specialist Sevita Employee Review

Pros

Idealistically, the company has good intentions about being a strong community resource to help families and children in need. In practice, what appeared to me to be the most important part about doing business was how much money the company could bill from the federal government. And to the men and women working in direct contact with these marginalized groups of people day in and day out the coffers were closed.

Cons

"Bill or die" should have been this company's edict due to the fact that from upper management down to the entry level employee the impression was given that the only thing that mattered was quantity over quality. Very disheartening in a field where serious issues in the lives of client's in dire straights took a backseat to billable hours.

Pros

Good relations with PBS sometimes Good pay

Cons

Management is horrible. You may get a good house manger, but their supervisor are terrible. They all get together in some type of clique and even have favorite employees where they put them in a new position simply because of their connections. The Program Directors and Area Directors lie on employees just to cover up their involvement and save themselves from being written up. There is no fairness when working at this company. You can get in trouble for something and a Program Director, Area Director, or even house manager can do the same thing and have their coworkers cover for them. They talk about chain of command a lot but when you actually follow it, it only comes back to bite you. If they want you gone your gone. I've seen it happen to two house mangers where one was lied on and almost faced criminal charges (now dismissed) and the other forced to leave or face a charge that was not their fault for problem that happened before they got there. It's all basically like a bad toxic parent and family. You can speak out to what's going on, but they refuse to listen or get mad because you're pointing it out. They speak In a raised voice, you match it ad get called disrespectful. You point out that they are doing the same thing and it's apparently how they talk. You talk about something private that's going on in your life between a manger or program Director and the next thing you know all your coworkers know.
