Family atmosphere, a true sense of belonging, the work and the mission is meaningful and fulfilling.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The work is demanding and the need is great.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment is pretty professional for the most part if you maintain your professionalism. As with any place of employment, if you allow yourself to get caught up in the workplace negativity and gossip it is available. It is definitely a family atmosphere. Choose to stay positive and career focused, and you will be fine.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very professional and welcoming 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy keeping weekly schedule with clients

The company has a great mission and do wonderful work in the community thus their longevity but changes should occur and updated policies should be present. More Personal Time Off should be given and  consider providing and granting greater opportunities for professional development in order to grow in the company and to assist in doing the job better. Also, I would appreciate an increase in communication and better support from immediate supervisor. 

BFD treats its employees like children- they make you sign in and out for the day instead of just trusting you to come in and do your job.  I worked as a Masters Level intern in the Parent as Educators program and basically did nothing all day but filing work.  My supervisor was not open to me shadowing others in other departments and basically restricted any learning opportunities.

Absolutely loved working here! Everyone was always so kind & willing to help if I needed an extra hand. Our case loads were manageable, I never felt overloaded. Great place to work especially if you’re just starting out and need to get your feet wet.

Worked with a wonderful and very supportive staff.  Offered some flexibility to be creative in motivating students to learn.  The students were a tough bunch because their teacher had passed, but they were resilient and we persevered.  They demonstrated growth in so many ways, that now I look forward to teaching, inspiring and watching my next group grow.

The most enjoyable part of the job was the team of case managers that I worked with. They're a very knowledgeable group of people. We supported and assisted each other. We also advised one another about how to handle challenging cases. All of us demonstrated a willingness to sacrifice individual success for the benefit of the team.

If you are looking for experience, try here. The bridging the gap program was effective towards younger clients. You have room to advance as time goes but this job should be taken as a start off job to advance and build your resume.

If you are not a status quo person this is not the job for you. There is no real respect or consideration for quality employees. The culture is oppressive and unworkable for me.

I must restate that who you work with and for will make a great difference in what your experience is as an employee. 

I don't have anything further to state.
