CORA Services

Your positions varies, for me. As a Behavioral Health Technician. You will go based upon as needed rather than a set schedule, you can have a set schedule that you adhere to. Majority of the times, if your client is unavailable, you’ll be subjected to be called to fill in or provide coverage to a client.

The administration is very understanding, very active and will see to it that you’re able to perform your job, at a favorable standard. You will meet all kinds of people, from different backgrounds. This will help you build in yourself and sense of character! The most enjoyable part of this job, is not for what the job can offer.

But, every individual client you meet and are able to build a report with. You’ll carry a sense of compassion in your work, and the work you do doesn’t go unnoticed!

Cora is a very clique-y atmosphere. I always felt like I was in high school. I mean literally- you eat in a lunch room with those long tables, you have to chose somewhere to eat or you eat alone. It is full of VERY young women, aged 24-35, who appeared shallow and created a toxic environment in my opinion. If you weren’t accepted, you were NOT accepted, and would feel miserable. The place felt like my catholic high school. There are pictures of nuns and crosses everywhere, as it was established by a nun. It has a very sterile feel to it. None of the counseling rooms belong to anyone, you just use it for your session and then leave. Everyone has cubicles. It wasn’t for me. I like being in a warm, down to earth, more flexible minded group of people type of place.

CORA Services is an amazing place to work.  There are approximately 300 employees who all share a common vision of supporting children and their families.  CORA provides great work/home life balance and is an extremely supportive and encouraging workplace.  Executive leadership are transparent with staff and keep all informed of the current state of the agency, as well as being open to suggestions.  Salary is reasonable and staff enjoy other perks of employment.  Most importantly, CORA is clearly mission driven.  Work is extremely purposeful and outcomes are celebrated with families regularly.  If you want to regularly make a real difference in the life of a child - this is the place for you.  In a nutshell - it's a great place to work!

Worked 2 different positions, the 1st part-time (Personal Care Assistant), the 2nd full-time (Truancy Case Manager). Felt greatly supported in both positions and enjoyed the level of autonomy I was afforded. Full-time position paid well, PTO and other benefits were satisfactory. Greatly enjoyed the sense of community with my colleagues and their willingness and readiness to assist me when called upon.

Great supportive management in my department who are willing to advocate for staff when schools aren't abiding by the contract/treating staff well and talk through any challenges that come up. The overall culture is very supportive and welcoming. Lots of opportunities for professional development for cheap and lots of free resources for staff to use at their sites. Company leadership sometimes makes confusing or frustrating decisions and could do better about communicating important info in a timely manner but dealing with that isn't that bad since most communication is directly with my department or folks that also work at my site. The pay could definitely be better but it's not the worst.

I am a recruiter at CORA Services and am new to this industry. Everyone has been wonderful working with me. HR goes out of their way to teach me about each position and department in depth. They will stop whatever they are doing to answer any question I may have, no matter how busy they might be. Project Directors/ Hiring Managers make themselves readily available to me to make sure my job can be thoroughly completed.
I am very happy with the team work and the friendly/ family like environment. I have recommended CORA to friends and family and will continue to recommend them in the future.

CORA is filled with caring individuals from the first minute you walk in the door. The reception area is calm and cool with friendly hellos from all. 

Many employees start with the company part time and stay for their whole careers. Other individuals will leave CORA and later return because of the work environment is supportive to their personal lives. 

When you commit to work in a nonprofit company, you know that you will not be paid high salaries. Yet, employees that are committed to the mission, feel rewarded with the work they do with families.

The communication from upper to middle management is terrible. There is no support from team leads. Management usually gives you just enough rope to hang yourself with. You will not be fired, but they will use your inadequacies as a reason to not give you a raise or a promotion,  ever. As an employee you are mostly left to figure out things on your own and punished if it is not done correctly. The pay is ok but not comparable to other social service companies. The company has an extremely high turnover rate which usually leaves hardworking employees feeling burned out as they try to pick up the slack.

My time at Cora has been unlike any workplace. Overall a very positive and welcoming culture. Where a non-profit like CORA lacks in financial compensation they excel in giving other types of equity. Whether that is a work/life balance, or an opportunity for advancement CORA has done right by me. Regardless of other more lucrative opportunities, I have received since being at CORA I stay here because I love the work we do, the lives we touch, and the communities we change.

I enjoy being at CORA. I think it’s a great work place. I built a lot of professional friendships with certain people in the company. On my team everyone is supportive of one another. You really have to advocate and fight for yourself if you want to climb up the ladder in leadership and advancement.
