Pros

The best part of working there is the inmates. Also the pay is nice.

Cons

Management is incompetent, unprofessional, and lazy. They hold staff to an extremely high standard but when they have to help us, they don’t hold themselves to the same standards. They only care about covering their behinds and doing as little work as possible. They don’t care about the program, the participants, or the staff at all. Management is the worst part of this job. They make a great job unbearable. Some of them don’t even show up to work a majority of the time but they throw a fit if we have to miss work for something important. The hypocrisy and bs is unbelievable in a professional setting. They are so short staffed, they are not able to fulfill their contract with CDCR.

Pros

Easy to get hired, they will take anyone

Cons

Working at Center Point, Inc. will undoubtedly put a serious black mark on your resume. The organization has a notorious reputation within the industry for significant issues surrounding ethics, compliance, and even fraud (search Google). The environment can best be described as a cult of personality, entirely centered around the President of the Board, who has ruled the company with an iron fist for five decades and shows no signs of stepping down. Creativity, autonomy, and adherence to modern business practices are systematically crushed. Managers and executives rarely last beyond the point when they uncover the harsh realities behind the façade of promises made during recruitment. The company prioritizes profit above people, consistently enriching a select few executives at the direct expense of ethical and compliant operations. Do yourself a favor—avoid the agony, stress, and professional damage by seeking employment with a reputable organization that genuinely values your contributions and upholds strong ethical standards. Center Point, Inc. will not provide you with either.
