Pros

Great colleagues who share the struggle with you. You do genuinely care and show empathy for the population that is worked with and sometimes you'll meet very special participants.

Cons

There is a reason the only good reviews here are from executive level management, red flag right there. Executives constantly give themselves promotion and love to remind you that at the end of the day you do no matter. Nepotism runs wild in the highest levels, siblings, wives, best friends, etc. You will never reach these levels. Every day you will sit in your car wondering if it is worth it, it is not. This organization exploits its employees with the false promise that we make a difference. The only thing that matters is how many grants can they get to keep growing financially. Leaving was the best decision, if you value your mental health, and even physical well being, keep applying elsewhere.

CRCD is a truly community and mission community development organization that has made tangible impact for the South Los Angeles community.

Cons

Constant growth means constant change but comes with the teritory.

Pros

Fellow case managers are great (too bad they're all as overworked, burned out, underpaid, and stressed out as you will be)

Cons

Previous reviews noting poor upper management are absolutely correct. Nepotism and cronyism run rampant, and favoritism is also a huge factor. If you're not "in" with Associate Directors and above, then you're viewed as inconsequential and not treated with basic respect or human decency. Caseloads are astronomically high, and management only cares about meeting numbers, not about actually helping youth or adults seeking workforce assistance. Be prepared to do the job of two or even three employees with high expectations and no support (oh, and training is non-existent: you're just expected to hit the ground running]. Staff safety is also not a priority as we have had several unsafe situations flagged by employees across various sites and they are all handled poorly and/or dismissed. This organization is all talk about their mission with no follow-through. There is a high turnover in staff FOR A REASON. The only highlight here are the genuine people in staff, who care tremendously about servicing others. But even that doesn't make up for the organizational disaster. Please prioritize your wellbeing and DO NOT APPLY HERE.
