Longhorn Village

Let me preface this by saying- the facility is BEAUTIFUL and the residents are amazing. I've grown close to many people who live here, however, the management does not care about their employees. I've dealt with bullying and harassment from coworkers, which lead me to take the high road and simply ignore it. Over the last few months, nothing seemed to be improving, so I went to HR to discuss things. An email was sent to my managers, and all of a sudden, the tables turned on me and it backfired. They never addressed the issue at hand, instead, they chose sides with the employee who has been there much longer. I always went above and beyond in my work and was falsely accused of making mistakes on any given day. With that being said, they're very politically correct and chose sides instead of being objective. I was told to grow thick skin and deal with it, because that's how others "process their stress". This created a toxic work environment for me and others I'm sure. Nothing was resolved. Unfortunately, I dealt with retaliation since the issue.

Longhorn Village management lacks communication between themselves and their employees. This lack of communication causes a great amount of confusion among other staff, and ultimately management will punish staff. They will never work with you on solving problems and will twist the story to again put blame on the staff member not themselves. In addition, they do not respect that some of their employees are in high school. Managers will ignore school hours and schedule their teenage staff during school. If you see older reviews saying that management was good it's because it was. With new people in management they have managed to make succeeding at work nearly impossible. If you are a parent do not let your child work here. If you are in school do not work here. And last but not least if you value even an ounce of a healthy work life balance, do not work here. 

I started working at LHV when I was new to Austin in 2016. My drive was 45 min- 1 hr, but I stayed. I stayed because they are awesome. It is very much a comfortable family atmosphere with the staff, they try to work with you the best they can especially with school and family. This was super important to me. The facility is beautiful, management is very approachable, the people we care for are great! The facility really reaches out and pushes to educate staff with competencies. Management seeks to find system errors, educate and improve rather than just discipline. New ideas, and feedback are always welcome from our family here at LHV, it is a great place to work.

If you don't mind tons of drama , med errors, no management, positions offered excepted then you are not told they changed their mind and you don't  have the position anymore, over 600+ missed phone calls at a nurses station, unhappy resident's families , responsibilities changing daily ,and being lied to....well then I guess apply.
And no, I was not fired I voluntarily quit.
Btw.... they never take their ads off indeed, just
 Because they say they need nurses for those positions, it's not true. I was there 4 months they have a in house waiting list for all positions except PRN. This is all true I have emails and text message to back up everything I stated.

Management screws over their employees to save themselves. Communication is horrible. They do not work with you on any problems. One manager in particular either sits in their office the most of the day or never helps when we’re busy. Working here is a waste of time. Most of the managers just look out for each other so nothing ever gets fixed. Many people have left because of this manager and for some reason the company values them over majority of their staff. 

Not as structured as it should be, Administrators aren't efficient.  CEO was great, but never around.  Many were there for just the paycheck and weren't interested in providing great care.  Pay is low, raises maybe 25 cents once a year if your lucky.  Bonus at end of year not provided by the company, by its residents to show appreciation for employees.  Free lunches every so often  brought in.  Benefits are just ok.  Time off hard to get, shortage of people and a good amount of turnover.

I have found longhorn village to be a great place to work, but as the years progressed, it seems that I start to realize that management  is unorganized and seems to have trouble hiring competent CNA's to work there. Because of this most of the CNA's that have been there for years and who work hard end up working harder. Working double shifts almost on a daily basis because management can never find help. The only enjoyable part of my day is the smiles and praises I get from the residents I care for and the few coworkers that like myself is trying to make the best of a difficult work situation.
