Extremely bad work life balance, leadership not interested in actively listinging to their employees, very high turnovers due to unsustainable work conditions, unsupportive community and culture

We strive to create a healthy, balanced work environment and we understand that we fall short at times due to staffing shortages. Please know that we are actively building stronger staffing and scheduling systems to assure positive experiences for all employees.
You will meet some of the best people you've ever known at L'Arche Portland. It's a non-profit organization that maintains a lot of integrity and human-centeredness and has for decades.
Cons
Like many organizations in 2021, it's going through some transitions as it grows.
I mad so many friends at L'Arche Portland. It is a tight community and there is frequent interaction through all levels of the leadership. They encourage growth. It's fun, community based, active, and involves problem solving.
Cons
It's a very difficult job. It's dirty and messy and frustrating at times. That's life.
