Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your experience, but it's important to clarify a few points. We have robust workflows and systems in place so that all employees, once trained, are assigned hours based on the availability they provided during the hiring process. We provide orientation and shadow shifts to determine fit and comfortability for both the employee and the individuals served. Additionally, our compensation structure is competitive within our industry, and we regularly review and adjust wages to ensure fairness. Lastly, our HR and Management teams work diligently to support all team members, and we always encourage open communication to address any concerns. We take all feedback seriously and continually strive to improve our processes and work environment.

Don't even bother

Support Worker (Former Employee) - kelowna - 26 July 2023

The only thing good about Strive is the benefits package. The onboarding process takes forever and HR is disorganized. Strive seems like a good Idea and place to work but once you work for them the truth comes. Save yourself the time and effort in the long you will be better of.

Pros

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're pleased to hear that you appreciated our benefits package, but we regret to hear about your challenges with the onboarding process and perceptions about HR. Our onboarding phase is comprehensive and can take 2-4 weeks depending on the Record Checks that are mandated by our Funding Bodies and other criteria that ensures our workers are vetted to work with the vulnerable population that we support.We continually aim to streamline our procedures and value feedback that helps us improve. Our primary goal is to provide a supportive and efficient work environment for all our employees. We encourage each of our staff with concerns to reach out directly to HR or Management so that we can address specific issues and ensure everyone has a positive experience with Strive.
