Shepherd Center Reviews

Shepherd Center runs its company like a modern day plantation. There are no chances for advancement in the minority community. I have been employed here for years and nothing has changed. It's sad that a company like this has developed such a good reputation and is allowed to get away with this type of behavior. Unequal pay and unequal advancement opportunities. Shepherd Center has been in business over 40 years and has only had three minorities (person of color)to reach Senior Management status. Two of them just were brought up to Senior Management last year and one of them are gone. Prior to last year, only one person of color has reached Senior Management. No other person of color has reached Senior Management status or Vice President status in these 40 years of business. Whoever complains about this or speaks on this type of behavior are usually terminated to make an example and to scare the other employees. It's a vicious cycle that continues to occur. They receive millions in donations a year so they don't care about the ramifications of losing millions do to their terrible business decisions they continue make. They truly don't care and nothing will ever change until someone with true status, like a news reporter or TV station comes and investigates this behavior. If these companies and wealthy people knew that their donor dollars were being used to support inequality and over spending, most would surely stop donating their hard earned money. Someone needs to give some attention to a serious issue that is almost half a century in the making and continues to occur. They will never change as long as people continue to turn a blind eye to this horrific behavior. I have given things a chance to change but it hasn't so I am currently in the process of leaving because I can't continue to support a company that judges people simply because of their skin color.
