Robson Communities

A typical day at work:
Productive, but management is not professional on the way they do things, they have a lack of communication skills and they talk down to workers which can be stressful and energy draining. Everyone else on the team is very easy to get along with.

What you believed you learned:
I learned a new skill (floor care tech)

Management:
HR and management are very condescending and unfriendly. I would mention new ideas to the manager and it seemed like those ideas would always get brushed off and ignored. The manager would belittle pretty much every one and talk down to them in a passive aggressive manner and would show excessive amounts of favoritism to two specific individuals. They were just mainly unprofessional and condescending and wouldn’t listen to employee’s ideas or concerns.

Workplace culture:
The work place itself and the environment was astonishing. That was one thing I looked forward to everyday and that was being in the environment. Residents around the work place were very friendly and other supervisors and managers from other departments were also very easy to get along with.

The hardest part of your job:
The hardest part mainly was trying to talk to my manager about new ideas that could potentially work and make things easier for the rest of the team. It was really hard trying to talk to my boss about work related things without upsetting her. The manager would just talk down to me every-time making it seem like I’m better than her or something. It was very hard too to take our 15 min breaks that the company provides us because we would all have heavy workloads and it would just be impossible most of the times to take our 15 min breaks. Sometimes even our 30 min lunch breaks would be hard to take. Also a huge lack of feedback was an issue for me as well as I wasn’t getting a lot of feedback from the manager as they were giving everyone else. Management and HR just don’t seem to be caring either of employee’s mental health. It’s mainly just high demand and low recognition. I would do an excellent job every night and get very little to no feedback. Another issue was that the manager would play favorites which upset the rest of us as she would let an individual leave early every night after they had completed their work however whenever any of the rest of us would ask to leave early after our work was completed we would get told no and to stay. and the manager would also nit pick at certain people including myself. I believe that the PebbleCreek Goodyear location should look for new management as soon as possible.

The most enjoyable part of your job:
I really enjoyed coming to work everyday to work with my partner and get our work on the floors done. It felt good knowing that I accomplished a lot everyday and felt quite satisfying.

Growth Opportunities:
It seems like certain growth opportunities and promotions are only offered to certain people that the manager "favorites". We had a worker that got promoted to supervisor that has only been there for 5-6 months. And its not fair for the rest of us that have put in more time and work than that individual that had gotten offered the supervisor position for only being there for 5 months. As for raises I felt that my raise should've been higher knowing the fact that I had taken a higher position with excelling performance as well as great attendance.

Teamwork:
The manager established that she wants the whole team to help one another out if another worker is behind. The boss never went through with the idea and certain people would finish late while the other workers would leave on time or when one individual worker would ask the boss to leave early every night since their work had been completed.

Robson was a well-structured company and I enjoyed working for them. At times they were short staffed and there was an abundance of extra work and homes to complete within given time frame. Keeping trades on schedule was the most difficult part of the job. In turn, the company stood behind their employees and also showed appreciation to all vendors who worked for them. Was there for 14 months and got laid off along with others due to slowed progress on moving forward with the next phase of the subdivision.

I applied as a front desk administrative assistant, part-time and only 3 days a week (Fri-Sun). Ideal job for student, however you give up your weekends and miss a lot of family time and birthday parties. I was willing to forfeit that for school, however when requesting time off they are very moody about it because the other receptionist and administrative assistant hate covering other shifts. we are suppose to share duties and working as a team is ideal but very challenging when working with negative co-workers.

I did my typical job duties every day, and whatever extra tasks were available in the kitchen. Many of these extra duties served as a learning opportunity, and a way to fill time when work was slow. Such as, working alongside the prep chef on daily food prep, plating entrees, and salads, and cleaning specific equipment.

My boss was very flexible with scheduling, and understanding about scheduling conflicts. Feedback was consistently provided about how I performed, in a constructive and understanding way.

I loved working at Robson; the entire Robson family is an absolute delight to work for. This is where my career took off, and I thank them every day for the opportunity of getting my foot in the door! I learned quite a bit but also had a great deal of work-life balance here. My only complaint would be it is a VERY republican company; if you don't swing right, you may be a little outcasted. that's all

I can’t complain. Robson treats their employees well with competitive pay, steady hours, great benefits, and Christmas bonuses. The job is steady, but can be hectic and fast paced during our busier times in season. Other employees are willing to jump in and help each other as needed. We have a smaller team of employees so it allows us to have real relationships with each other as coworkers

Maintenance manager worst of the worst. Using budget for things other than the company needs and allowing his family to use company vehicles outside. Housekeeping supervisor is too old to work, keeps taking and getting hurt on the job. Co workers barely speak English are always stealing valuables. Lazy and dictate what little they want to do. Not a good place to work

I worked less than a month, Nobody knows what they are doing, poor management, unprofessional people. I worked as CNA/Caregiver, I asked for a salary and they went so low to nothing. The employees are lazy with no skills. The residents complain and they don’t Care, Run away from this Company as soon as you can. 
Pathetic!

Robson Reserve is an amazing organization to get your journey in healthcare started when working in the Health Services Department.  It is always room for growth and advancement if you work hard.

Sadly, I had to leave with the covid outbreak. Loved this job and people I work with but as in all other assisted facilities, no one knew how to handle it at the time. I have a friend living there now and it is handled so much better, as in all senior facilities. Did not affect how much I enjoyed working for Robson
