Access

Access has been a blessing in my life. Waking up and being excited to go to work is a feeling I have never felt. Part of this feeling is based upon the work we do Helping our neighbors with Food, Warmth and Shelter feeds the soul. However, the work would not push forward with as much efficiency if the employees didn't feel appreciated, respected and trusted. Access is my family of choice. The leadership truly cares and as an employee our opinions count. We are encouraged to ask questions and obtain clarity. ACCESS has been supportive of my continued education and I was awarded a scholarship to help assist with that process. ACCESS continues to work with my schedule as a full-time employee and student. If you want to make a difference and have the support of an amazing team, ACCESS hits the mark.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Absolutely the worst company I have ever worked for. Lack of integrity. The horrible management of staff starts at the top. People will burn out working here, and it’s not necessarily from the type of work but the lack of compassion and support from the entity as a whole. They fire people like it’s going out of style. Lack of a feeling of safety. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Gate keeping, lies, unsupportive work environment. Corruption. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It’s so odd and contrived. Not based in reality. They talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.

Access is fantastic in helping the community but there is a reason that no one typically lasts more than a year or two tops! We have staff quit/get fired weekly! All upper management is new and have no idea what they are doing. They talk about being inclusive but they aren’t. They disregard policies written in the handbook when it doesn’t suit them or the bottom line. Look elsewhere for work unless you only need something short term. 

ACCESS as a whole is a great non-profit doing amazing things for the community. There are som departments that struggle more then others. Some managers and/or supervisor are very miss guiding and miss understanding. They take little time to get to know their team as an individual and as a whole. With covid I feel that the community of working together and being in a office and connecting with others has really shrank and it’s been hard. 

ACCESS provides many services for those in our community including food and shelter. Our work can be very rewarding because we are providing the resources and assistance to help those who are eligible for programs. We have a broad range of diversity. The best part is the schedule of Monday through Friday 8 am to 5 pm. It is great working for a business that really focuses on the client’s needs, as well, as the needs of the employees.

Homeless Street Outreach was awesome at first. Then it started taking its toll on my mental health. Absolutely zero confidence in the Support Services Director or Outreach Manager. Extremely high turnover rate. Very few people stay more than a year. Overall a very poor experience.

I felt a sense of inclusion and belonging since the first day. The leadership at the organization is wonderful and very innovative as well. They care about the employees as people and they care about their clients. It’s an organization that sets out to build community and empower people. I love this place and enjoy it every single day.

Great company management needs work though alot of drama . If you let them they will dump all kinds of work on you. HR needs major work and the way files are handled outside of that it was a good place to work.

This is unethical and unqualified leadership company who is supposed to help others. Non supportive and judgmental leadership at this company. Does not have room for growth nor expanding current skills which drives people tio search elsewhere for growing ans learning opportunities.

Lots of opportunities for growth. Good benefits including PTO. Provides so much support to the community. Enjoyed the majority of my time at this organization.
