Pros
Full time work schedule was 4 days on 3 days off. Physically active. Generous benefits package.
Cons
High Performance Team model does not provide adequate supervision for such a high risk job. Risk of severe injury by residents. Senior Leadership Team is out of touch with what is happening on the floor. Toxic work environment. Staff do not respect each other. It's one of only a handful of employers in the Calais area and they take advantage of that by mistreatment of employees. No raises. Understaffed residential units which put employees and residents at risk of harm. Bad reputation with the local police department. Senior Leadership are over valued and over paid while long term, high performing employees have low incomes. Mentally and emotionally exhausting Under funded and employee use their own money to fund activities and supplies for the children.
