Leisure Care

Working at Leisure Care has been one of the most meaningful experiences of my career. What stands out most is the company’s commitment to both its residents and its employees. There is a clear sense of purpose behind everything we do, and it never feels like just a job. It feels like you are part of something that truly makes a difference in people’s lives.

The culture is supportive, collaborative, and growth-focused. Leadership encourages you to bring your ideas to the table, and there is a strong emphasis on personal and professional development. I’ve been given opportunities to grow in my role and continue building my skills, which has made a big impact on my confidence and career path.

What I appreciate most is the balance between high expectations and genuine support. The standards are high, but you are never left to figure things out on your own. There is always someone willing to help, coach, or celebrate your wins with you.

If you are looking for a company where you can grow, feel valued, and be part of a team that genuinely cares about people, Leisure Care is a great place to be.

i was really excited to work there. the goals for the company and their 1/3 therory was something that i really loved..... how ever.... i was told they did the schedual by the month... i worked 17 days stright and in the 3 months i worked there was only given a weekly schedule that constantly changed. the current nurse or should i say LPN is breaking the WAC laws every time she turns around she thinks that every question she is called for is stupid and does not want to be bothered with it. when we have to have clarification for a matter or an authorization from her do deal with an issue. she does not care at all about staff or the residents....

the business office manger is a joke. she changes the hours that you work to fit her needs and then is never consistent on the pay... one pay period if you work overtime you will get 80 regualr hours and the then say 10 hours of over time..... then on another pay period say you worked 120 hours you are told your regualr  hours are 100 and then 20 hours of over time even thought the employee hand book states that  overtime is anything worked over 80 hours. and if you approch them about this discrepency then you get grilled as if your a criminal and asked to prove you actually worked those hours when you have to use the time clock inside the building..... please please please beware. i left before it got worse but i have friends that are still there and currently looking for other places to work. the management staff is going to cause lots of residents alot of hardship.

Too many lazy employees who take advantage of hard workers
Typical work shift inc.your assigned tasks for NOC shift, in addition to the dirty tasks that the day shift didn't want to do. Cleaning up after employees in housekeeping who were lazy & dirty.
I learned that depts are very cliquish(especially with certain ethnic groups) & managers have family members reporting to them, even though it's against company policy.
Management is very unprofessional & unethical, they straight look at you and not tell the truth if it gets them their goal. They discuss employees with other employees, even confidential info. Management also appoints friends to other management positions. I say appoints because they were clearly not qualified. 
Don't expect any type of support or backup from management unless you are part of the clique, or a major brown noser. And if you stand up for yourself, it gets worse.
They also try to get out of paying employees for training. And will argue until blue in the face saying they don't have to. Fortunately, the law said different.
I would only work here if I was literally starving and had to feed my family somehow. And that's pushing it...

My coworkers were great and I loved my dining room manager, but the communication between management and workers is almost nonexistent. You won't know about an item that was added to stock that is being offered until one of the residents ask for it or you find it in the fridge/storage, or if new equipment is being ordered until you come in and see it installed. Performance reviews were started but multiple employees never got one. Constant promises of merit programs or tips being implemented with no action, meanwhile corporate will pay for renovations happily and we wait months for a broken machine to be fixed or replaced. But you do get a nice bonus at the end of the year. If you want to get started learning to serve or need a part time while doing school it's a decent job, they were very flexible with scheduling. But the training is ad-hoc so you have to be self-motivated and ask a lot of questions if you have no prior experience.

In the facility where I worked, the GM asked the nursing director to schedule staff BELOW state requirements. Caregiving staff were coached what to say if asked questions by state auditors.  This seemed to be endorsed by the company management in Seattle.  There was constant turnover, especially of kitchen staff. Salaried staff frequently worked over 24 hours at a time due to having to cover call-outs. They were not allowed to call in agency staff to cover it.  Resident's family members transferred them out of the facility to competing facilities out of frustration with the care the residents in memory care were receiving. There was very little staff training, and no management support of staff. There was a lot of punishment (e.g. write-ups for honest errors or small mistakes), and the GM ruled by fear. Staff hours would be arbitrarily cut back if the census fell. This also contributed to turnover, as people needed to work the hours at which they were originally hired.

Don’t expect to get anywhere working here. I wouldn’t even recommend this to a high schooler needing a first job. Everybody here is unprofessional. No opportunities to grow in any sense. Pay is probably the worst aspect of this place. Don’t expect to get a pay increase here unless minimum wage increases that is. It’s all a cycle, no one gets paid a decent wage, people leave cause they realize they deserve better, then you’re short staffed and everyone has to pick up their slack for the same pay, get frustrated because you’re being overworked, and finally if you’re lucky you realize the people that left were right and you deserve better. This place expects WAY too much of their workers to be paying them dirt. Coworkers are probably the only good thing about this place. You’ll meet some of the nicest people, none of them including management. Nothing but favoritism goes on here.

I just quit for many reasons.
In the eyes of the management there you're just another body to fill their schedule. They don't really care about you and your work life balance. And they will not hesitate to work you like a dog. 9 servers quit in just one week. That really tells you something about that place. It's basically just a ship that keeps on sinking. And not to mention that they're so desperate to hire bodies that they'll hire anybody even with no work experience, which just adds to the already huge fire thats burning the workplace culture to the ground.

And a big thing that really grinds a lot of the workers gears is that the manager there just comes and goes as they please and offers little to no help with the daily operations. The manager only shows up to put up a front to look good in front of the boss. literally leaves a couple newbies and good servers to fend for themselves, and even leaves the poor cooks all by their self. 

Hire unqualified people with zero days of training, other employees have to do extra work to pick up their slack. Management hire unqualified friends and family once again putting more work on the shoulders of the good employees. No one is held accountable for wrong actions. All sorts of med errors ignored. Can't be open with management concerning experiences because they are all related and gossip and never do anything about a concern. What I learned is the importance of having good managers who set barriers between themselves and the coworkers and are fair to all employees. If you are in healthcare for the right reasons and actually care and want to make a difference and help others. Don't work here. If you believe in right and wrong and fairness. Don't work here. The lack of care and unprofessionalism will drive you nuts. 

This company is false advertising. Walking in, it seems like a fun, fair and enjoyable place to work but once you're in, it's a whole different story. Management is horrible, everyone does not get the same treatment or discipline. If you have connections or relationships with management you get away with everything. During the pandemic the employees were shown no appreciation, in fact they withheld raises and any other perks. Workplace culture is toxic, management criticizes your personal life which has nothing to do with your work ethic. This place only cares about taking credit for your hard work. Pay is horrible, overtime is tampered with, you can work over 80 hours and not see any extra money due to how the schedule and pay period interferes. They expect five star above and beyond service while paying you pocket change, horrible. 

Leisure Care has been one of the createst companies I have worked for. From the top of the company to the newest hourly employee, the three-thirds lifestyle is preached and lived. These thirds are family, community, and work, and your lifestyle should be balanced in that order. There have been a handful of times I've needed to take care of family or had a community event (both local and international) that Leisure Care urged me to prioritize over my work. They want their employees to be happy outside of work, so it spills into their worklife, and it works! Because of this, I believe Leisure Care pays the non-executive employees below industry average, but to have leadership that value me as a person, and the things I am doing outside of work make it worthwhile.
