      Pros

      Support staff who actually support at the community when positions are open or questions arise. Senior management knows down to the details about what's happening at the community level. Dedication to staff and residents.

      Cons

      High expectations in a changing market lead to extremely long hours. Difficult to manage a work/life balance.

        Free meals when you work in the kitchen, a Very nice environment, Checklists for shifts.

        Cons

        Long hours for morning and afternoon/evening shifts. Decent pay is other than that it's the perfect job for a college student.

              Pros

              We are fully committed to promoting a wonderful life style for our residents. Rewarding and fullfilling work . Every day is different and experiences last a life time. We have a staff that works well together , sometimes we are like a disfunctional family but we always work it out. We work very hard but love what we do and our residents.

              Cons

              Long hours and sometimes it feels as if our corporation is disconnected from what is happening in the community. Regional management needs to be more focused on the positives of each community and not the failures.

                Pros

                Opportunity to make a positive impact on seniors.

                Cons

                Executive Directors at our community were awful. Are fired, replaced with corporate fill-ins who treated us bad as well. Not supportive. Minimal training for jobs, but expected to know and do everything. The regional and corporate management care nothing about the Directors or other employees. It is a constant revolving door of employees thru the organization. The turnover rate is something like 140% or more per year - meaning for every position, there is 1 1/2 people hired each year to do that job. If you review the positive ratings on GlassDoor, you will notice they are mainly from corporate executives in Kentucky - not in the suburban Atria communities. Pay is very poor for hours required of directors. You are used and then Atria 'throws you away'. They expect Directors to work extremely long hours for very poor compensation. Never a thank you or you're doing a good job. Work holidays, nights, etc... again with poor compensation and benefits. They offer incentives which don't pan out. Just need to pay excellent compensation and they will get good people and keep them. Poor employees stay because they don't have options. Good people leave - quickly after arriving. Compensation is about 50 % of what it should be. You are told it's a 40 hour a week job and it's 50% more than that with high pressure and long hours. Expectations of employees are unreasonable for compensation offered. They expect lots of unnecessary paperwork and reports to be done when important things are totally overlooked and not dealt with daily that would truly provide better care and positive way of life for the residents. Silly rules on what can and can't be done on the schedule that don't matter. Better to offer and provide what the residents, who are paying big bucks, want and should be getting.

                      Manager

                      I’ve recently completed an interview for my dream job at a dream company. It went well (and received same feedback from HR afterwards), however I was just informed the position is placed on hold to ascertain their resources, etc. my interviewer was the head of the department. Would it be inappropriate for me to reach out to her on LinkedIn to let her know I would be interested in any future roles on her team?

                      Analyst

                      I’m interviewing for a role I’m very interested in (met with a recruiter, hiring manager, a manager and two directors). All interviews went well. My most recent interview was supposed to be the final one, but I received an email asking me to complete an additional one. Could this mean the interviews didn’t go as well as I thought? Can I ask the hiring manager if there was a specific reason why I’m being asked to complete another interview? Has this happened to you? Signed, -Nervous Nancy 🫠

                      Administrative Assistant

                      Gave two interviews recently and got a feedback that I wasn’t able to explain my role as effectively, because of which I won’t be able to transition as fast into a fast-paced environment. I have worked in one small firm and one small-mid firm, and I personally feel I am ready to take up more responsibilities and move to a bigger firm for more exposure. Not sure how else I can explain my roles effectively, even after walking them through everything, how am I supposed to utilise this feedback?
