Enjoyable job, stressful duties

Indeed featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
There is no lack of work which is great but it gets to be too much. Tasks piled up and new changes in the company had several hiccups.. good people to work for just stressful job.

You’re a drone

You don’t count as an individual you are a worker drone they will work you to a point of burnout and then not care if you need a day off. Management will go on trips (not work related) paid for by the company while they reduce the benefits staff receive.

Pros

None

Cons

Ok place

This can be a rewarding place to work. People are generally good to work with. They are currently trying g ti improve the atmosphere. It's like everywhere else do your job things are great, don't do your job, complain when you lose it.

Pros

Lots of hours

Cons

Lots of hours

Five stars doesn't mean "perfect" but...

...but it wouldn't mean perfect if I got five stars, either. I started here as a Community Support Worker, and I've worked with CARE, in a range of positions, for over 8 years, now. Some of the positions worked well between us, and at least one didn't. But, even when things didn't work, CARE worked to find a next position for me that again worked to our mutual benefit, and I will always be very grateful.CARE has always accepted my commitment to the Company and to the people we serve, and I've always known that management deeply cares for the people we serve, and their employees, in return. I'll also add that my own lack of self-confidence and skills in some important areas has, I'm sure, increased the times when I've felt highly stressed, or "not good enough" or not valued. Certainly, no problem has ever been "all their fault" and, as one supervisor put it beautifully: "we're all works in progress, here."One thing I know that has worked for me at CARE (I straight up asked) is--beyond my commitment to Company and residents--that I've accepted any criticism as my chance to step up and meet the challenge. And, from my side, CARE management has always listened to me and heard me out, even in the tougher times.So: no, not perfect, but I still happily give the full five stars. My rewards here at CARE have far, far outweighed any negatives. And I love my work. If what I wrote speaks to you, I very much recommend working here.

An organization that is progressive and not afraid of a challenge

I have been with Care tor several years and have enjoyed my time here. I have been given the opportunity to move about when a certain position or site didn’t work for me and have also been given opportunities to also advance in my career. I see a lot of reviews are about Management and I would like to give my opinion. Care has a lean Management Team. The CEO, the Director of Programs, the Director of Support Services who also helps with accounting and hr, and two program managers (Stone Brook and Residential). They are there when needed and have Team Leads and Coordinators in the homes FT to meet our needs. Sometimes people leave and are disgruntled (I think a lot of these reviews show this), this is probably because the Organization does have a high standard and although they will invest into employees (like me), they don’t keep employees who bring down the team and are not willing to change around forever. I am thankful for the opportunities I have had with Care. It’s not where I will finish out my career as eventually I’ll probably want a change but it is a place where I am happy and challenged and I’m sure will continue to be as long as I’m here.

Pros

Flexibility, not too heavy, will invest into employees who come with a good attitude and a willingness to learn

Cons

Shift work, working some weekends, some holidays (it is however 24/7 Care so I get it)

Nice place to work

Care has been very good to me ever since I started with them. They allowed me to have another full time job and had given me flexible hours. Also, I work with great people who are dedicated to bettering the lives of the individuals we work with. Staff are easy to work with and can be depended upon. RC's and Team Leads are accessible anytime of the day. A typical day at work would be engaging with happy and contented individuals. We don't often see senior management but they're just one phone call away. If you're looking for a place to work, with good benefits and highly motivated people, try CARE!

Horrible company to work for

Apply at your own risk. Horribly managed company they do not appreciate their staff and you cannot voice your opinions or you will BE fired on the spot. Over work their employees, horrible pay and horribly organized. They are money hungry. I wouldn’t put a loved one in their care either! They don’t pay overtime or raises and hardly accommodate shift changes as well. They should not be able to be running a company or caring for individuals
