Mixed opinion. - Program Manager Community Systems Employee Review

People we support are awesome, we get to work with some friendly co-workers who are there for each other. relaxed business casual environment. 403 B, tuition reimbursement . longevity incentives payments, growth opportunity within the agency.

I have worked here for 21 years and like every business, it has it's up and downs throughout the years, but it really is a fantastic place to work.

At every level, from the executive director to the direct support professional, I am surrounded by people who genuinely care about the impact they are having on the lives of the people we support. As well, I'm surrounded by people who genuinely care about each other. The sense of family is palpable, and one of the best aspects of working here (one of the things I'd miss the most). The teams I work in are ready to cautiously explore new directions to problem-solve and improve services. I've worked here over a decade... not one boring day yet.

Our mid-level managers are at times greatly overburdened being stopgaps for shift work coverage during periods of low staff availability. Indirect supervision/lack of direct supervision creates accountability pitfalls. Really good communication skills are needed to stay connected to the teams you work in.
