Pros

Benefits, experience in a managerial role, pay.

Cons

Administrator cusses at her participants calling them “psychotic” and “a**hole” I’ve directly observed this behavior. She displays narcissistic tendencies as she does not respect her employees unless they talk bad about others with her. She requires employees to sign documents but doesn’t explain beforehand. If you ask questions regarding anything she has had a final say on, she has yelled, belittled, or threatened your job. When employees advocate for themselves, she flat out says “stop playing victim” and continues to power trip others. She has sent extremely unprofessional emails at 11pm to her office staff (aka managers), talking about her trauma and expecting a response but writing “I’m not expecting anything but if you respond with understood or received, this will be equally disrespectful.” This has created office staff to walk on eggshells around her and say/do what’s needed to stay on her good side for the sake of their job. The majority of the office staff are younger and impressionable. This works to her benefit as she will use them as the communicators for her toxic behaviors, I have personally experienced this as she wanted me to take a “cold approach” to someone I needed to coordinate with on behalf of my participants. This made it extremely difficult to maintain professional relationships outside of this company. In regards to her ResHab participants, she has consistently taken away rights as she reprimands them. She continues to spiral downwards as she loses various participants and employees versus changing her mindset and creating positive morals to live by. After working here for about 2 years, I have consistently experienced past and current employees aligning with what I have stated above.

Pros

The staff was very friendly and did their best to welcome me.

Cons

The Office Manager position seems difficult to maintain, as several Google reviews and my own experiences have highlighted. The management style includes fear and intimidation tactics, with unclear instructions and reluctance to have face-to-face discussions about issues. Communication is primarily done through emails, which can often be negative. The organization lacks proper file management, which may pose challenges during the upcoming audit. Overall, I found the work environment to be quite toxic, with a noticeable hierarchy that undermines staff morale. I left quickly and would not recommend this position to others.
