Pros
So far the benefits are good, but that will only continue as long as you are employed by Lifespace or until they need the money to continue to grow the Home Office. (see below) The residents and fellow team members are great to work with.
Cons
Since the new CEO started, the home office has increased staffing by 117%. That money has to come from somewhere. All bonus's below director have been eliminated and for director they are based on unrealistic goals so basically no more bonus's. Not earth shattering for most but for those in marketing it is like a 25-50% cut in pay. Home Office response. We can do what we like, if it no longer works for you you are free to leave. Can the loss of other benefits be far behind? They are also planning on contracting out a lot of service areas over the next few years; dietary; security; housekeeping; grounds; fitness. More consistency and less hassle with fewer employees to manage and a set budget. A win-win for Home Office but avoid taking a job in any of these areas in the next year because it might go away when the contract companies come in. Will notice be given? Unlikely. After all it is just business and if you don't like it......
