Holy Angels, Inc.

I have never worked at a place where the leadership cared about the staff so much! I wish that non-profits could pay more, because that is the only issue that this organization is facing that makes it challenging. The management does free meal days every single month for the employees! It is a great time to come together and celebrate with the staff. They do a lot of t-shirt giveaways along with a Christmas Gift. I have never been at a job where I got so much stuff!

As with any job, it has it's challenges. The challenges largely pay...and staff that don't have the best attitudes. I will say that I love the staff that I work with- and we all work together every chance we have to make the environment better. 

It is all about perspective. Some people who come to work here don't realize that caring for people is not easy work. It's clear: if you have the heart to work in this field, you will LOVE THIS PLACE! If you don't have the heart- you will not be able to handle it. I am passionate about the best parts of the job- the residents! They are family to me, and they help me more than I help them.

On sites like these, those who have bad experiences are the one's who comment the most. I can promise you that is not the feeling of the people that work at this place. It is a little piece of heaven on Earth. It certainly easy...but my goodness is it worth it!

After many years of employment for this company I have finally realized all the love & attachments formed for the beautiful residents is the best only good thing about working here. There is almost no time off so expect to miss out on holidays, birthdays, graduations, and most of your own family’s experiences. The overwhelming stress of caring for the health & well being of the residents can & will eventually cause your own health & well being to suffer as well. This is not a job to take lightly. Also much of upper management has no empathy for the staff nor do they care that you yourself has a life outside of work. They’ll give you a free meal once a month, t shirts, & candy bars, but don’t expect to feel respected as a human being as they are not capable of understanding human emotion. It doesn’t matter if you have a degree or experience they will treat you as less than because you are not “one of them.” The residents will love you & make your heart smile, but the executive team at Holy Angels will treat you like a steaming pile of *#%+. 

You like being followed around by 4-5 supervisors be my guest. If your interested In benefits don’t work here, insurance doesn’t doesn’t even cover much of anything. Pay isn’t great for the work your doing. Turn over rate is high. They don’t take care of employee or the residence that stay there. Supervisors play favorites a lot and it fires back on you if your not a favorite. The State of North Carolina should come and really examine the work that’s being done here. Seriously. 
I love the residents there but the office folk not too much, nothing is secured not even your job here. If you are qualified to do work here don’t apply they will turn you down. They will hire someone they want to train which is very sad because experienced nurses and doctors can’t work to the full potential because everything is so minimal at Holy Angels. If you decide to work here be aware of area 1 and and area 2 your patience will be tested with the work and it’s tough work dealing with those kids and low pay rate.

Holy Angels serves residents who are differently able 24/7, providing opportunities for the best quality of life for residents served in a tremendously loving setting. The work is very fulfilling and many consider it their calling to care for residents who, due to their medical fragility, rely on direct support professionals for their every need.

Career paths and educational opportunities are available to all staff, with dedication and hard work rewarded. An active Pastoral Program incorporates compassionate, faith-filled encouragement and support when help is needed most.

Creativity and flexibility is encouraged in an environment where many hats are worn. It's an opportunity to put one's talents to their best use as well as learn new skills. 

The relationships with residents lasts a lifetime and are among the most rewarding aspects of serving in this mission of loving, living and learning for the differently able.

If I could give upper management zero stars, I would. There's so many supervisors, you never know who to go to. They constantly tell you they have your back over issues, but then it gets forgotten. Moving up in this company is a joke. Unless you are related to the CEO or are friends with someone, you ain't going no higher than DSP. They make up more positions than I have ever seen in a company. HEY, GUESS WHAT! The 15 made up positions in HR really seem to be helping, seeing as turnover is at an all time high. If you like drama, petty fighting, and a ton of useless management then Holy Angels is the place for you! 

Literally, the residents are the only reason that place is great, and I think the uppers forget that, seeing as they never come out of their offices to actually see the residents. Dedicated employees are ran out of the door, because y'all don't care.

When I first started working at HA, it was wonderful.  I never wanted to leave.  Management changed and they are trying to become more corporate while undermining employees that bend over backwards for the residents.  Paychecks need to be watched very closely, especially if overtime is worked, as do schedules.  So management is great at working with employees, some not so much.  If you want a place to learn and make a difference, this is an amazing place.  Be prepared to work hard and work a lot of hours in certain positions.  The residents are amazing, the campus is a thousand percent better than any other place I have worked in this industry.  It is a mostly female based work environment.

What a place. You’ll fall in love with the residents, but the upper management and staff? Prepared to be backstabbed and compensated with religion instead of pay.
My credentials were DENIED because they didn’t want to pay me a better wage.
I was told to my face that my certifications didn’t exist… how would that make one feel? Afraid? Worried? Concerned? That right. And that’s exactly how I felt. I literally thought I did a wrongful act and lost my credentials somehow but nope. 
I still have them. 
They just didn’t want to pay me for what experience and credentials I did have.
Starting wages around 12 an hour regardless. 
Seriously a joke, I left as soon as possible and went elsewhere - where my credentials were HONORED lol

Management was terrible, but the residents were the only reason why I went to work. Management didn't care about the residents nor their employees. When we told the nurses about the medical issues that the residents were having, they would always complain about going to the house you were in, or took their sweet time to get there. Then we would REPETITIVELY let management know that the nurses are not doing their job, and they still DID NOT CARE! They blamed the DSP's for EVERYTHING that went wrong, but never blamed themselves and their poor management practices. And don't get me started on the CEO; all shes good for is creating hostile work environments and getting the ones that actually LOVE the residents to run away.

The residents are what make the job so incredible. They are really the only reason people continue to work there. The management is a joke and they do not really care for their employees. The company tries to offer perks such as employee meal day and the ability to attend the annual banquet even if you are working. The employees are not supported from a management standpoint. This is difficult to deal with. The benefits are horrible and they continue to get worse every year. They are incredibly expensive and if you aren't making top dollar, you can't afford them. I honestly loved my job but the company makes it so hard to actually do the job. The residents deserve better.

Most people cannot say they have a job that allows them to observe true mercy moments each and every day while impacting the life's of others.  Working at Holy Angels allows just that for all its employees.  The added bonus is each employee gets the opportunity to serve incredible residents with developmental disabilities.  The residents feel the love and deserving support provided by our outstanding staff.   I would encourage anyone that is thinking of joining our team to visit our website and see the smiles on our residents faces.  It will make the decision so simple and easy.....Come join our incredible team and see the mercy!
