KCS, Inc.

I recommend looking elsewhere. This non-profit company has a very hostile and stressful work environment. The training provided was not sufficient enough. The job title and the summary of duties are always changing; more duties are added and added. The pay does not reflect the amount of work and responsibilities that are added continuously. 
Micro-managing is this office's style which adds duress to the employees. This makes you feel like you can't make mistakes without being reprimanded. 

Turnover is very high; people come and go, left and right. It's not just entry-level positions but also the management positions.

When we were required to go back to the office it was done in a rushed manner. The office space did not allow for adequate safety measures like 6 feet apart, proper office equipment, and overall lack of space. They do not have proper protocols for patients to safely to come into the office space.

They promote inadequate people and expect others to carry the rest of the workload. A lot of favoritism. 

Many of the employees are related to each other, one way or another; most of the upper management are relatives and there's no real oversight. 

HR in this company is there to protect the company and not its employees.

I don’t even know where to begin. I loved my job and my direct supervisor! I worked at the main office (HQ) and I had the best time there learning and growing!  I constantly got the best support from my supervisor and directors!  I loved the purpose of this place- which is to serve the community and to help everyone! Having a job with a great purpose is beyond rewarding. Also, being able to help during the pandemic was truly an amazing and memorable experience which I will never forget! I can’t thank KCS enough for letting me be a part of it! 

Work life balance at KCS was amazing! I loved that they were always willing to work with their staff.  I came from a really big company prior to KCS and I never had that work life balance until here!  I loved that I was able to leave work and be present for my family and kids without constantly having work on my mind.  My family (esp my kids) are my top priority and working at KCS definitely allowed that!


The pay at KCS truly depends on what you do there. It’s not rocket science that the higher position/hard worker you are, the higher your pay will be. So the bottom line is- there is always room for growth and plenty of opportunities for pay increase/raises. You just need to try! 



As an employee of four years, I saw the organization’s rapid growth both in size and services offered. I recently resigned to pursue a masters in hospital administration.

For the majority of my time at KCS, I worked as a CaRe Coordinator. The work is rewarding as most patients are from underserved immigrant populations. The bulk of my projects aligned with my interest in community healthcare management.

My interactions with management were professional and positive— I experienced very few instances of toxic leadership. Coworkers are diverse and most are dedicated to the mission. Many have been with KCS for 10+ years.

Like other local non-profit agencies, KCS lacks the resources to provide the “perks” of working for a larger company. The plus side is that the organization is nimble enough to pivot based on community need and interaction with senior leadership is easy to come by. KCS is at the sweet spot between corporate and family-atmosphere.

A typical day at work involves balancing tasks like meetings, emails, and care managing for patients. I've learned time management, adaptability, and teamwork. Good management fosters open communication and clear goals, while workplace culture emphasizes collaboration and inclusivity. The hardest part is managing conflicting priorities, but the most enjoyable aspect is seeing team success and delivering meaningful results.

I have been working at KCS for 3 years and I really like it here. The work is challenging and rewarding, and the people I work with are professional and competent.

One of the things I like most is the opportunity to make a difference in people's lives. I see patients from all walks of life, and I get to help them improve their health. 

There is supportive work environment. My colleagues are always willing to help each other, and we have a common goal of helping our patients. I feel like I am part of a team, and that makes it easy to come to work.

The benefits are also good. I have free health insurance, also dental and vision insurance, and there is a 401k match. 

Overall, I am very happy with my job. I would encourage anyone who is looking for a career in healthcare to apply here.

The turnover rate at this place is extremely high. Low pay. If you are hired for one thing, EXPECT to have your role/duties switched to something else eventually without your consent and get no pay upgrade. Managers are all related and they all make 4x what other employees here make. They don't care if you have a degree or not, so don't expect that having one will matter in their eyes. They claim that everyone is a big family here, but I guess they enjoy paying their 'family' scraps. New management is needed ASAP - they literally ignore the fact that every worker is unhappy here.

Then things changed and it became too unorganized, employees became targets of an ever changing management, three in less than a year, each less experienced in the too many programs they have in one space. Employees became confused, and some even turned on each other, making working there uncomfortable. Then the crisis! There was a wonderful mix of cultures, management was fair and followed the rules, in the beginning. The hardest part of the job was that the patients were no longer the focus of management and treating the whole patient became words and patients were the reason to be there, the most enjoyable part of the job was the patients.

The KCS is an amazing place to work! The management team is friendly, supportive, and always willing to train employees thoroughly to ensure success. They truly care about their staff and create a positive work environment.

One of the best parts of working here is the team—co-workers are always helpful, making it a collaborative and stress-free workplace. The benefits are great, including paid vacation, holiday pay, and excellent work-life balance. If you're looking for a company that values its employees and provides opportunities for growth, I highly recommend joining KCS !

I was a volunteer here that assisted with case work when necessary but mostly did administrative work such as assisting HR and Financial Departments with record-keeping, data entry, general IT work and support. I assisted in helping illegal immigrants apply for their citizenship through different modes of appeals and entry methods (Form N-400, sponsorships, marriages, etc.). This is a non-profit corporation so the pay is stable but it will never get spectacular and is more geared toward people who have degrees in social work and want to feel the accomplishment of helping people out.

This company is rich with diversity and cultural experience. The company is family owned and really create an intimate work environment while still providing services for a large population in Orange County, California. The Company operates 7 offices and runs a multitude of community based programs from DUI schools to medical clinics. Paid MFT internships are also available. I worked for this company for almost 6 years and would have continued to work their had I not moved out of state.
