WORST COMPANY EVER!!!

Pros

Many people I worded with were very nice and I lived near this place so the commute was only five minutes.

Cons

They try to portray themselves as all about family and nice people and that is the complete opposite of the truth. Management here only cares about one thing. How much money goes into their pockets. I have four kids and desperately needed the benefits so I worked super hard. After twelve years I was fired. After many years of good reviews they made up a bunch of horrible lies on my review and fired me just like that. They did the same thing to many other people that were also fired.

Pros

It's a wonderful mission. I love knowing we are working to save the lives of others.

Cons

There is no room for advancement. Any opportunity for personal growth is stifled. Hardworking employees are micro managed, overworked and stressed out. Many do the work of at least two people. You hardly know we are a non- profit because it's always about the bottom line.

Pros

Worthy mission. The CEO is very kind.

Cons

There is no career path. Staff is extremely over worked. Promises not kept. New hires are made to do a job that they were not hired for. It is very hard to trust management. In my department alone there have been several instances where senior management has not kept promises and has not been forthcoming with our department. There is also a very high turn over rate.
