I have loved working for Holiday for the last 4 years, but now I'm not sure.....
Pros
I love being able to help others find the best place to live. Helping seniors to be safe and happy and their families find peace of mind is why I do this job.
Cons
After 43+ years of success and growth, Holiday is changing their structure. Why? I keep hearing that it is for"a better work/life balance" for managers but that can't really be the case. The change to a GM instead of couples is understandable and should have a positive response, however, now they are moving the managers out of the building all together - there will be no one on site over night, not even a security guard. This is what has elevated us from every other senior living company and now it's going away. What I don't want is for the corporate management to blame this on the community managers. They have their own agenda with Fortress - the community residents, managers and associates are the farthest from their mind. It has been easy for me to "sell" this lifestyle because I believe in it, I don't feel that any longer.
