Pros

Stable, great people to work with, reliable company

Cons

Pay increases aren't great, especially when new hires get paid the same as people who have put in many years. Management structure is ever changing, adding new positions or creating new job titles up high instead of adding more people at ground level to keep things moving steady without employees getting overwhelmed.

Pros

Great Benefits-Not sure what else to out as this is not a great company to work for.

Cons

The current feedback process, wherein employees are encouraged to submit complaints regarding supervisory practices, appears to be ineffective. Feedback is not genuinely considered, nor are actionable changes implemented in response. Supervisory staff often present themselves as supportive; however, they tend to shift their stance and do not consistently advocate for their team members. There is a lack of genuine commitment to employee development, and follow-through on commitments is frequently absent. Supervisors sometimes misunderstand or misinterpret employee requests for clarification, resulting in misunderstandings or accusations of unwillingness to learn. While supervisors claim to want employees to succeed, their actions—such as ignoring requests for assistance—may inadvertently hinder that success. Regarding the in-person interview process, there appears to be a discrepancy between the initial information provided and the actual expectations and conditions of the role. Transparency during these processes could be improved to foster trust. Although the organization emphasizes teamwork, in practice, collaboration among team members is minimal. There is a noticeable lack of support and mutual assistance within the team. Additionally, management tends to take information at face value from certain individuals, rather than trusting and supporting long-standing employees. Human Resources interactions have been perceived as confrontational, with a tendency to dismiss employee perspectives without providing adequate opportunity for explanation or dialogue. Overall, there is a concern that the company does not consistently demonstrate respect for its employees or value their contributions, which impacts morale and engagement. Clients/Employees complain a lot about certain processes that are in place. If you are going to be a Hybrid company - make sure if you clients are needing in person assistance, be there for them instead of over a simple screen.

Unsupportive Management and Cliquey

Pros

-Benefits (holidays, PTO) -Salary (higher than most comparable companies)

Cons

-CEO (wants current employees to submit complaints about supervisors in terms of “no access” to needed supplies, etc.) -Supervision (supervisors act supportive but when it comes down to it, they’ll turn on you and not defend their employees) -Team work (Lifework’s emphasizes teamwork but there is none. It’s one for themselves. Extreme lack of team work and helping coworkers.) -No support (supervisors/management take the word of clients rather than believing and supporting their long term staff members.) -HR (come at you combative without allowing a chance to explain and defend your opinion.)
