Allies-in-Caring,-Inc

This employer is very open minded and will hold frequent meetings to express changes in mission, work delegation, and to hear feedback. A typical workday is arriving at the office between 8:00 and 9:00 in the morning. The working environment is cozy, small, clean and quiet. Tasks are provided on a weekly and daily basis. Allies In Caring has a Team Atmosphere however working well individually is normal. This is the office setting. Behavioral Therapist and Specialist create there own schedules and are paid weekly. They are matched by client needs, qualifications and location. There I learned to compliance procedures,  office ally navigation, and claim handling. A decent place to work for someone with little personal responsibility and the ability to adapt to frequent changes.

I've been working at Allies in Caring, Inc. for one year.  In that year I have seen lots of progress and forward momentum in the company.  Ivette, the Director, is committed to the community in a big way.  I see the internal finances, so I know how difficult it is to attract and keep qualified providers, when the Medicaid reimbursements haven't changed in 17 years.  Ivette is very attentive to employee satisfaction, and keeps in touch with her providers to make sure their needs are being met.  She even gave them an extra paycheck during the Covid-19 pandemic.  The office staff is a delight to work with; they obviously enjoy their jobs and the significant roles they play in serving the youths that Allies provides services to.  I have the tools I need to do my job.

I really enjoyed working here , it never felt like just a job. Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, I had to step away. Management has truly stepped up, and the new admin team has been amazing to work with. I’ve learned so much from my supervisor and the rest of the team, who made it feel like a home environment. I’m very grateful for the experience and for the wonderful families I had the opportunity to work with. The only challenge I noticed was that, since most kids attend school, working hours tend to fall mainly after school or in the evenings.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The director is a caring, flexible and professional employer that is a support to all her employee. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Getting there. My commute was long.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Environment was relaxed and supportive. The culture was diverse.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Meeting with the director to discuss status of my cases and discuss availability to take on other cases. Worked mostly from home. Met once or twice per week with management at the office.

I started as an intern.  I was told that I couldn't get it paid as an intern even providing billable work hours. Which I did! The company was making money but I wasn't. When I asked for leadership and support they asked me to change my resume around so that it presented as if I had the experience that the case if needed. I have heard that the owner didn't mind bending the rules to fit her needs but to see it in person. It was heartbreaking. I really did want to give my best to the company,  to the community.  Very dishonest. I had heard but didn't believe that the manager was willing to do this. I saw it first-hand.

If you thrive in constantly changing and unpredictable environments, this may be the perfect place for you. However, for me personally, the lack of clear responsibilities and ever-evolving nature of the company made it challenging to adjust and succeed in my role. The day-to-day operations and management were still being refined, causing confusion and hindering productivity. It was difficult to have a clear understanding of my tasks and expectations, making it hard to perform my job efficiently. Ultimately, I am glad I decided to leave.

Very uncomfortable to work with unprofessional owner. Don’t have the right concept of how to run an office or how to supervise the same. Every day she  makes changes to staff duties in order to accomplish her desire. Made plans to celebrate Mexican Culture celebrations and assign staff to participate with out asking. Doesn’t allow staff to speak up during staff meeting, she gets verbally Aggressive during staff meetings and Curses to staff during meeting.

during my internship, I have learned a lot and have had a great experience at Allies in Caring. My field supervisor was always there to support me and share her extensive knowledge with me, which helped me grow both personally and professionally. However, I feel that there is room for improvement in terms of communication from management, as it could have made the overall experience even better.

This agency fits a niche in the social service market. The vision and values are easy to get behind. I believe the poor working environment and culture and subsequent staff turnover is directly due to the Executive Director/ Founder. Very poor supervision and leadership skills. I wish it had been different. 

This company is still figuring out the kinks in their day to day operations and management. It was very difficult to have a clear understanding of the responsibilities and it was difficult to work under the owner. She had requests that changed often and made comments that weren’t so nice. Great concept, but needs work.
