Chrysalis Center Inc.

Working at  has been a rewarding experience. A typical day at work is productive, engaging, and filled with opportunities to support others while growing professionally. The environment is fast-paced at times, but teamwork and communication make each day manageable and enjoyable.

One of the biggest things I learned while working here is how to improve my communication skills, work efficiently under pressure, and collaborate with a strong team. The job has also helped me grow professionally by teaching responsibility, patience, and problem-solving skills.

Management is supportive, professional, and appreciative of employees. Supervisors recognize hard work and encourage staff to continue developing their skills and advancing within the company.

The workplace culture is positive, welcoming, and team-oriented. Employees are respectful toward one another, and there is a strong sense of teamwork throughout the organization. The company makes employees feel valued and appreciated.

The hardest part of the job can be balancing busy workloads and handling challenging situations during high-demand days. However, the support from coworkers and management helps make difficult tasks easier to overcome.

One of the best parts about working at Chrysalis is the excellent perks and benefits offered to employees. The company provides advanced perks such as gift cards, paid time off, bonuses, and employee appreciation incentives, which help employees feel rewarded for their dedication and hard work.

The most enjoyable part of the job is being able to help others, work with an amazing team, and feel appreciated every day. Overall, Chrysalis is a great place to work for anyone looking for professional growth, supportive management, and a positive work environment.

Training was poor. Employees complete eLearning's within the first 2 weeks of employment. They are not certified or resume worthy. After that, you are on your own depending on the program. Ex: my PM never once sat with me to learn the program necessary to work there. I also was hired for a different population. Not the one I had applied for or related to my experience. Case management position was treated more like a customer service position than social services or related to one who completed higher education. Also, employees do not receive an employee handbook. The handbook is a huge 3 ring binder that is read out loud during orientation instead. If you want a copy of a page, you would need to go to the main office for it which would just raise flags. 
A lot of rumors and intimidation tactics from people of why employees were written up, transferred or terminated. During orientation, I had received 3 different emails about employees that were no longer with the organization after setting up my company lap top. The emails happen quite frequently. I was warned to watch what you do or say because someone is always watching you. You must use your own transportation and increase your insurance liability coverage due to transporting clients. You do not get compensated for it. You do receive mileage reimbursement but I never received a penny for my travels.  As an employee you literally have to be on your toes 24/7 and to make sure you do not say or do the wrong thing. Intimidating environment overall  and a very poor experience. After all the negative feedback I received as "warnings" I did my best to stay away from the main office and preferred not to attend company functions.

I have proudly worked for Chrysalis Center for the past six years, and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my professional career. During my time here, I have had the honor of being selected as a Quality Champion twice in a row, which reflects the organization's commitment to recognizing and celebrating the hard work and dedication of its employees.

What I appreciate most about Chrysalis Center is the supportive and inclusive culture. Leadership genuinely values employee feedback and provides a listening ear, creating an environment where staff members feel heard, respected, and empowered. The organization also offers numerous incentives that encourage growth, engagement, and excellence.

Most importantly, the people at Chrysalis Center are what make it truly special. The staff is compassionate, dedicated, and supportive, creating a workplace that feels more like a family than just a job. Every day, I have the opportunity to work alongside individuals who are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of others.

I am grateful to be part of an organization that invests in its employees while remaining dedicated to its mission of helping people build brighter futures. I highly recommend Chrysalis Center to anyone looking for a workplace that values its team members and fosters both personal and professional growth.

It took approximately three months until someone asked and informed me of what my role was and the expectations attached to it. The benefits are GREAT as just about everyone has mentioned but you’ll have to determine for yourself if the benefits will be worth the headache and stress management will put you through. All of my years in the corporate world and playing the “corporate game” could’ve never prepared me for just how absolutely petty management is at this place. They will make you question whether or not you’re allowed to be happy at work. What they’re going to pay you is not worth the headache and stress they’ll put you through. Another thing worth mentioning, management has this apparent “beef” with union workers(all case management employees are union) so you will not be allowed to speak with, have lunch with or be seen to be too friendly with unions workers. I’ve been paid heck of a lot more money to deal with heck of a lot less. I wanted to dip my toes back into work so I took the position, added it to my resume and moved on to much greater things. Case managers don’t make enough for the bs they have to deal with, the finance department makes okay pay for the work required, property management makes decent pay for what they do(they don’t do much and I’m almost certain they don’t know what they do). 

Chrysalis Center is a great place to work. Upon starting with Chrysalis I received an in-depth training which continues to provided me with the tools necessary to complete my job.  There is always something new to learn and great opportunities to look forward to within the company.  Management is friendly and professional and provides feedback frequently.  Staff members who work here are friendly and helpful. What is most rewarding about working at Chrysalis is being involved in a mission-driven company. Consistently staff and management will reference their mission and it is rewarding to know that everyone that works here comes to work to support the clients. Working in a position where I get to interact and help clients is very rewarding. As someone who has worked in the non-profit sector for over 7 years, Chrysalis by far is a leader. For those looking for employment with Chrysalis, I recommend coming to work each day with a positive attitude, stay mission focused, do your best to serve the organization, and be willing to learn, grow, and adapt to feedback. This is an awesome organization that consistently leads by example.

While the work with clients at Chrysalis Center was meaningful, my experience as a case manager was difficult due to a lack of support and professionalism from management. Supervisors were often dismissive and, at times, rude—particularly toward newer case managers—while staff who had been with the organization longer appeared to receive more patience and understanding.

There was little structure in place for working with clients, which led to confusion, high stress, and rapid burnout. Case managers were expected to manage heavy caseloads and extensive documentation with minimal guidance or support. Upper leadership seemed largely disengaged, often citing other priorities when staff concerns were raised.

I hope management takes time to reflect on how they support their own staff before expecting case managers to effectively support clients. Investing in respectful communication, consistency, and staff development would greatly improve both employee experience and client care.

The turnover rate is high within all aspect within the agency within the year and a half that i was employed there. It was the highest within all of the years that I have worked for different nonprofit agencies. Senior leadership are bullies and the turnover rate is high due to the new leadership. They lack empathy. When COVID hit, the agency was tone deaf and the CEO stated if we were uncomfortable with something to "get our resume ready." The turnover rate is the highest in years due to new leadership. The workplace is toxic due to management. However, you have the ability to form significant and positive relationships with the employees within the service area. The population that you service is the most rewarding of it all. The experience is extremely beneficial and the pay is the highest in comparison to all other nonprofit agencies. However, you pay for it due to the stress you are put under.

Chrysalis Center is mission driven and client centered agency. Case managers are able to teach, support and coach self determination / self sufficiency/ self respect to clients. Leadership could be more helpful with support and  training in supportive housing, homeless services and behavioral health. The best part of the experience was my supportive and knowledgeable direct manager and my co-workers.  Clients are respectful and thankful for services in my experience. The 
agency response to COVID was insensitive and tone deaf to direct care staff.  They also struggle with training and staff development  specifically around  racial justice and  equity. The workplace culture was often blaming to toxic and staff have very low morale. All in all a disappointing experience at an agency with such incredible potential.

I have worked at Chrysalis for over 5 years.  I am motivated to come to work each and every day as I love the variety of job tasks.  This week, management offered the ice cream emergency bus for home-made ice cream sundaes for staff and $100 gift cards.  They do something each month to thank all of us.  It feels good to be recognized.  I am a quality champion which means I meet all of my funder outcomes so there is a special recognition for that as well.

As for the clients, this is the favorite part of my job.  My case load is 21 clients and at times the paperwork is tough but I keep up on it so I stay on top of my paperwork requirements.

The culture of this place is very support, corporate and professional.  I have been working for over 25 years and this is the best place I have ever worked.

Hardest part of the job is paperwork.
Most enjoyable are the staff and clients.

The best part about my job is the co-workers; both direct care and administrative staff are friendly and helpful.  I appreciate my workspace which is neat and clean and I appreciate that I can have lunch outside on the patio or inside in the lunch room.  I also appreciate that expectations are clear and direct so there is no question on what is expected of you.  Free parking, free gym membership (on site) are perks that I have not had at any other job.  Staff appreciation events are also well received- my favorite is the annual staff picnic.  Work place culture is fair and you pick the hours you want to work between 8am-6pm.  I love the clients and they appreciate all that I do for them.  This company does not hold on to problem employees so if you are a hard worker and want to be surrounded by great co-workers, this is the place for you.  If you are lazy and don't do the work, don't bother applying.
