HONORehg

If you are just looking for a paycheck, this is not the place. This place needs passionate, empathetic, energetic staff to keep it running smoothly atleast in my opinion. A typical day at work was chaotic (at times), but also exciting and rewarding  for the learning experiences and helping the clients. (This was also during the Pandemic). I enjoyed my time at HONORehg and learned many valuable skills, tools and lessons that will help me in my future career. Management was extremely helpful even on a daily basis. Due to the timing (COVID + turnover) and circumstances of when I was employed, I believe they will help set anyone up for success so long as they work for it and want it. Workplace culture was inviting, barely any issues arouse between coworkers and they made you feel a part of something bigger than yourself. Please if interested in working for HONORehg familiarize yourself with their mission statement. The hardest part of the job was trying to find balance in a new position while picking up extra hours due to staff shortage. I genuinely enjoyed the mentorship that was received from admin/management and of course helping the clients, especially the ones whom could not help themselves. With the leadership that is there, I envision nothing but success and will miss my time at HONOR. 

A typical day at work is absolute chaos. Every day is different depending on how many youth are in the shelter and their school situation. Meals are always refused because food from the main shelter is pretty bad or not suited for children/teens. Management throws you into the deep end with only online broad training and nothing on site. RCs and other management do not get along, the kids dislike everyone because any authority is seen as controlling. The kids don't have a voice, nor do the RCs. Don't let them sell you on inclusivity because there is very little to none. Incident reports do nothing unless in the most extreme situations. Everyone is expected to pick up extra shifts, with no training of course, because we are severely understaffed. Some work 16 hour shifts, stay past their time, and then come back less than 8 hours later to do it again. No breaks, ever. Kids need to be supervised at all times, which is fine and makes sense, if it weren't like you have to have direct sight lines with all kids at all times. Even being vaguely around the corner is a verbal warning. Hardest part of the job is balancing relationships with management and youth. Most enjoyable is actually getting to do activities with the kids and do something positive. 

I started with little to no direct experience, but did have relatable experience and passion to learn this particular field. Was offered/accepted more than a couple promotions over a relatively short amount of time; though in hindsight, I may have taken on more than I should've considering my lack of experience (this was not at all the fault of the agency, but rather poor internal reflection on my part). From top to bottom, there was more than enough support whenever needed. I left this position due to relocating across the country, but have missed this agency - both staff and clients - ever since. I learned many skills while being a part of the HONOR team; all of which stick with me to this day. Both the Director and HR are an amazing team to work with/for, and I can not recommend this agency enough. With that said, this is not a place you can work if you're simply looking for a paycheck; and rightfully so. The service they provide is far too important, and meant for those with heart, compassion, and dedication to "the cause".

One can not truly appreciate the great lengths the admin and management have contribute in keeping HONOR open and safe during the pandemics.     Admin and the management worked hard .  Not only were we safe we were provided retention  pay as well as significant hourly increases.    The office space for each staff is new and renovated.     Admin and management truly care for their staff.    Sadly negative staff effect smooth running and attempt to hurt other with lies.    HONOR has been the best job I have ever had.     Much thanks to all HONOR has done. For me and my family.   

Given a great opportunity to work and learn in the food service industry turned into a disappointed disaster.  Within the company's employees, sad to say, the gossip, lies and micromanagement ran rapid.  Society tells us, "You get that everywhere you go," true, however, if you want to learn how to gossip, lie and micromanage and try to destroy someone's character.  This is a place for you.   The social workers do a fabulous job with the residence, and the CEO really does care.  Now if the focus was less on the negative and of course more on the positive there is still hope for this company.

My work with at risk and homeless individuals was very meaningful and fulfilling. However there was little to no support from management. Counselors were consistently overworked (staying for double shifts and getting phone calls late into the night and on my days off to come in- which was not disclosed during the interview otherwise I would have felt better prepared and had a different mind set). Asking for time off for appointments, to take care of personal matters, or poor weather was not made easy. I really wanted to enjoy my time at HONOR more than I did, but I unfortunately felt no support. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
I loved my job because i truly care about helping people in need of housing. However, during code blue, the workload is overwhelming. It's essentially a 3 person job handled by 1 person, with 0 breaks. I ultimately left due to the shelter manager's poor micromanagement. Unfortunately, HR is not for you because they are never going to be on your side even when you are correct.

Proud to have represented the organization. We implemented a customer based outlook on our clients although it is a not for profit organization. We offered timely responses to our clients needs and they were priority at all times.

This place has it’s ups and downs. There are wonderful people that work there, but then again they are unable to keep good employees.
Because management is horrible and corrupted. The shelter manager is the worst out of all of them. The shelter manager does not care about the client at all.
