Bobby Dodd Institute

This place is NOT  a career, it is a stepping stone at best......ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE A PERSON OF COLOR.Take a job here if and only if there are no other options and if you do take a job here, continue your search for a better opportunity that will provide you with fair wages, regular raises, decent benefits, training, higher education, employer loyalty and room for advancement....none of which you will find at Bobby Dodd Institute unless of course you are white and even then if you don't know the right people. The management does not appreciate OR respect diversity particularly in their front office or within their ranks. They don't want you to speak up for yourself, they prefer those who may be under educated, and Human Resources it's a joke should be fired so if you are considering employment here,......DON'T waste your time but if you do, consider yourselves warned and standby for the BS sure to come your way.

The only thing good about the job is the pay and that's because it is on post. Coworkers are difficult  miserable bullies who create drama and need unrest,  management does nothing about complaints and/or problems. Have to depend sometimes on team members but they cannot be trusted. Employees are not valued. There is no advancement. If you do the right thing and act like a professional  you're wrong. Standards slowly went downhill. Supervisors are not helpful and do not care. Information is not disseminated equally. Gossip, rumors, drama and other people's issues on a daily basis. Too many unaffiliated civilians which is not fair to veterans and military spouses.

I really enjoyed working for Bobby Dodd Institute. My co-workers were all fantastic, helpful people who encouraged and taught me a lot  of things in the workforce that I still use today. I only worked 4 hours a day on weekdays, but it was my best-paying job and I easily could manage school around it. The only issue was the management. Not my direct boss, but my boss's boss. There were a lot of complaints about him and he kept trying to change policies that did not need changing or changing them in a way that was no beneficial to our work environment. However, I still enjoyed this job most out of all the jobs I've had.

Typical day at work consist of 350-500 calls per day. May take 4-8 Critical codes  throughout the day Alerting Doctors and Staff (via overhead page or radio) to respond to life saving Emergency Codes. Everyday different. Fast pace Environment. Challenging job..Keep you alert and on your toes with Emergency calls. Always busy non stop. Helps time go by fast. Management helpful. Staff friendly. Work place Culture-Culture is diverse in background. Hardest part of the job-Learned how to be efficient with calling codes and taking calls at the same time with no room for errors.

Pretty steady work, always good for 40 hours a week. Capable of flexible schedule, but mostly first and early second shift only.  No weekends ever.  The callers can range from very easygoing to rage-a-holic, but that's expected in any customer service. Average call-flow for call center.

A typical day was reporting to the State office building where you were assigned.  Cleaning offices, cubicles, and restrooms was basically what the maintenance crew had to do.  I learned that you must be trustworthy and respectful of other people's property while cleaning their area(s).  The enjoyable part of the job was working on my own for the most part and being able to take pride in the work completed with no complaints from supervisor or employees.

i start work by getting all trash out building, then i sweep all sweepable? floors and vaccum i wipe down desks water fountains and sinks then i do the same to the bathrooms
i learned how to clean very well and commucation skills co-workers were wonderful i learned alot from them
the hardest part of the job was me, the best part was having the job the accomplishment of me having my own and working hard for it.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great boss. Enjoyed working for veterans.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working with schizophrenic personalities.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Supportive. Everyone worked as a team.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
After clocking in, I would begin to answer calls. When calls slowed down, I would do some housekeeping, depending on which shift I was on.

Managers are messy you can’t take days off even if planned. Turnover rate high. Every time you go to lunch or restroom you have to tell the whole call center. 15.00 below poverty levels! No real benefits. They don’t care about the diabetic members they’re on hold for days at a time no call back given. Managers don’t like sup calls. System old raggedy not up to date too much work for little pay!  New training class every two weeks not recognized for real for spotlights just a thank you email 

This place is supposed to help people with disabilities but you have to perform better than the average person. Even some one with the mind of a child is expected to work at the same place as a perfectly able minded, able bodied person is. Paycheck gets shorted because they don't expect you to catch it. Supervisors are allowed to berate slower workers. Don't recommend anyone with disabilities work for them.
