opportunities for learning
Direct Support Professional (Former Employee) - Schomberg, ON - 2 August 2023
easy to become stagnant at this workplace. there are opportunities for learning but you have to seek them out. staff are often burnt out and lacking passion. Client are often great and treated well, in some ways become institutionalized

Okay place to start out in the field.
Direct Support Professional (Former Employee) - Ottawa, ON - 12 June 2023
If you are looking for experience in the field this is a great place to start. It is extremely hard to move up and the pay is not great. You will be worked to the bone and get no recognition.
Pros
Meals on shift
Cons
Long hours, unpredictable as if someone calls in sick you have to pull a double, management doesn't care.

Everyday is different
Direct Support Professional (Current Employee) - Ontario - 11 May 2023
Decent place to work as long as you get get along with fellow Co workers. Every day is different which makes it fun. Part time benefits aren't very good. Management varies between houses, some managers are good, some not so much.

Jobs at Christian Horizons (CA)
Produced With Caution
DSP (Current Employee) - Orillia, ON - 2 April 2023
Rewarding work but at the same time understaffed and overworked. Also I lot of internal politics with backbiting and people constantly going behind your back to management for often trivial matters.

You learn as you go. Lots of room for growth!
Direct Support Worker (Current Employee) - Saskatoon, SK - 26 February 2023
Unlike a lot of people CH does care about its staff, providing them with extensive training and a lot of room for growth. If this is the kind of field you wanna pursue in life, give it a go! Ps.: you’ll be dealing with people who experience disabilities, so don’t expect every shift to be all roses.

Good Company, leadership is lacking
DSP (Former Employee) - Moose Jaw, SK - 24 January 2023
I did enjoy my time there with the people supported and most coworkers, but Area Manager does not come around and does not listen to staff concerns and complaints. Floor workers are expected to cover shifts or work doubles and do a lot of the admin work that is leaderships role. Wage is fair for the easy days, but not for the long days with staff shortages.
Pros
Fairly relaxed, good training
Cons
Area Manager does not listen, low wage, staff shortages

Caring and supportive environment
System Administrator (Former Employee) - Huntsville, ON - 22 January 2023
Working with Christian Horizons was a wonderful experience. The Executive Director in Huntsville is a very smart, caring and compassionate leader whom I developed a real respect for. Benefits and salary were the only drawback.
Pros
Caring. Respectful. Values are supported
Cons
Benefits and salary are lower than expected.
