Aegis Living Reviews

Pros

Cheering, Supportive management at all levels

Advice to Management

They have to put stuff together no matter what.

Pros

I'm the Associate Care Director at Aegis of Redmond. Not to be confused with Aegis at Marymoor "in" Redmond.(Although all of our communities have the same Integrity and Values). It's been a privilege to work for this company for 5 years now. We have a caring GM that has the gift of seeing our unique talents and utilizing them for good. I have amazing coworkers from all backgrounds demographically and geographically, but united by the companies motto,"We Make People's Lives better." When we go to sleep at night, we do so in peace, knowing, that we love those in our care, with all our hearts everyday. As caregivers we give to others everyday with our service, but in actuality, we get so much more in return from those we care for. Our "Passion" for this work truly comes from within.

Advice to Management

What you're doing is working. You set the standard of loving people. Our Home office at the top, all the way to everyone of us on the front lines, are supportive caring people, which causes a wonderful "Ripple Effect."

Pros

Love the culture of compassion and the dedication to making a Wow experience for residents part of the daily tasks. It allows us to be really creative and the joy on the faces of the seniors is amazing. Benefits are solid and I work with people who really care.

Advice to Management

pay the employees more!

Pros

The culture. I paired up with my General Manager for our introductory get-to-know-you exercise and part of what he told me was "I love people. I finally have a job where loving people is okay." I have never felt so empowered and supported as I do at Aegis.

I have been in SO many organizations with inspirational mission statements and execution... not so much. Aegis walks the talk.

Aegis supports employees' growth. Management actively seeks ways to let employees learn and advance.

Excellent resident care ratios allow us to provide the best care to residents without cutting corners.

My coworkers are just amazing. Caring, smart, supportive and sharing. I'm already learning some Amharic. It's nurturing to be with a group of people who all care deeply about the work we do together.

Gourmet meals for $1.

Gorgeous environment. Aesthetically beautiful, spacious, and immaculate community.

Management is funny, kind, supportive.

Advice to Management

Never stop doing what you are doing. Sending home office bigwigs to teach at Aegis Academy made me feel valued and respected. The focus on the resident, quality improvement and the "inverse pyramid" servant leader model is so inspiring.

Advice to Management

Be alerted if a community has unusually high turnover. It's costly, but more importantly, it hurts the morale, reputation, and makes you lose some very good employees. Focus too much on profit, you will lose your good employees and lose money in the long run. Focus on your employees, you will gain their hearts and the profit eventually.

Pros

Nice residents, nice communities, good food.

Advice to Management

Train your new employees with a better process.
