I have only been there for a month but I have a very bad impression of how they do things.  Th  we y are terrible at breeding loyalty as the expectation is for you to be working ON YOUR OWN TIME FOR FREE if you want to be prepared in any way, which is an issue mostly because they only allow you to work fifteen hours a week and will often cut your hours with no notice.  They claim you will have training and support but this is completely dishonest. You do receive trainings that aren’t relevant to your specific job in any way. All trainings are virtual and remote to be done from your own computer.  There is a TON of paperwork and information to review and procedures to follow, with zero time to implement them.  This should be a 20-22 hour a week job but you are expected to cram in to 15 hours a week and not ONE MINUTE MORE.  They have a real problem with retention of their RSS’s and it’s clear why.  All of my procedural & clarification questions and requests for basic supplies  are deflected or completely ignored, then you are somehow expected to somehow know know exactly what to do and follow proper procedures. You are set up to fail.  If this was a 20 hours a week job it would make a world of difference and you might actually be able to succeed at your job and feel some loyalty and success with your work.  You never meet your coworkers and are left to figure everything out for yourself. It’s also difficult to find other employment since the work is from 2-5 Monday - Friday.  

I very much enjoy working at PHI. Management is very supportive of each employee, they are serious about the work/life balance. When you are off the clock they will not contact you! Even if it's just a lunch break. Staff schedules can accommodate school schedules.   
Paid holidays are automatic when hired, for a non profit they make an effort to give as many benefits as possible, for instance mileage is paid for running work related errands. Staff requests for supplies are quickly filled. 
I also genuinely enjoy my coworkers, one's personality need not be flattened here. Staff has lots of room to be creative in their event creation. 


First off, this job isn't going to make you a lot of money. So, if you're in social services for the money, IDK what to tell you.  A few dollars an hour over the minimum to start with, usually.

Pacific Housing gives me the resources and leeway to work with my clients the best way that suits their needs. They have been extremely generous in providing for our residents. It's all provided for, from toys for tots to snacks.

This is an excellent entry/part-time job to get on your resume because it shows you're capable of throwing together resources and providing for others. 

Most of us want a job that is rewarding, one that makes a noticeable difference in the lives of other people. I have definitely found that working for Pacific Housing Inc! Whether engaging with adults or with children in the various programs offered by Pacific Housing, you have the opportunity to truly help others. People appreciate the time and attention you are able to give them, and their quality of life is enhanced as a result of the many services you are able to provide them with. All of this, coupled with the fact that you work with a great team of managers and employees, makes working for Pacific Housing a great call!  

This is a great part-time job for those wanting to get into social work and those who want to reach out to their community by offering resources to the people. However, my area of work is surrounded by popular and competitive after-school programs, resulting in very low to no program turnout for three hours. Some other places have had great success and I don't mean to discourage anyone. I think this requires a lot of patience when having people come to you, but overall a job with good intentions.

This company is a non profit, so the only downsides are pay and budgets. The benefits are amazing! The people truly care about one another and love to help each other succeed. I joined in while services are still remote so the work/life balance score may differ after returning to being on site at properties, but my managers have been extremely receptive and compassionate when I have requested time off. You cannot beat this workplace culture. If you're considering applying, DO IT

I love working here. It's a place where you can work and go to school without stressing over how to balance the two. Their focus is the families we serve but they're also focused on the growth and development of their staff.  All of the managers and CEOs are very friendly. I love working here. I also like that I have the ability to create programs (within guidelines) for the communities I serve.

I loved working here. I worked for PHI for almost 5 years. My manager , her manager, and her manager was easy to talk to. I left a year ago and i am able to still go to them for work related advice. PHI helped me grow professionally. I had to step outside of my comfort zone to accomplish task and step up to motivate myself and be creative. The awesome part is, whenever I got stuck I could go to my manager and get the support I needed.

Pacific Housing has a great workplace culture.  Everyone is treated like family.  This is a company that values strong working bonds and understands the power of unity.  It is invested in building up relations that foster a positive work experience through annual luncheons and company outings.   I love working with people and Pacific Housing is the best place to do it.    

This company is a great place to learn, grow, and achieve. I have learned a lot during my time here for example how to handle certain situations and be professional. I am grateful that everyone in the company is very inviting and always willing to help. They give you the space to be creative with purpose  overall I love working for this company
