Washington County, WI

What is the best part of working at the company?
Opportunities to move within the county

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having a supervisor and not a leader, who also plays favorites and doesn’t hold everyone to the same standard. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Terrible and toxic in some areas and warm and welcoming in others. But when managers find out you’re trying to leave toxicity, they find ways to stop you from being successful. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Show up, get cursed out and screamed at, and go home. Show up and do it all over again the next day.

A wonderful place to work for. Exceptional challenges with constructive team work. Volunteers were very wonderful to work alongside of. I highly recommend the Volunteer Center of Washington County as a great place to work. The only downside is the cafe is hard to balance with life given the constantly changing schedule. Until the company grows employee growth will continue to suffer. When you feel confident in your abilities and what you have learned it is time to move forward. This is a GREAT step in your professional career.

I scanned medical information into the County's system.
I learned to be flexible, and very time efficient. I had excellent co-workers to assist me in all aspects of my work. The hardest part of my job was that I was a temporary employee and would have like to have stayed permanently. The most enjoyable part of the job was that I was treated like an essential part of the team.

I was micromanaged and bullied until I couldn't take it anymore. The management here is a joke unless you're in the clique. You're trained for multiple jobs and expected to retain everything in a ridiculously short period of time. Its extremely stressful. Some of the people are absolutely wonderful, but others make it impossible to enjoy your job.

Gross job, terrible pay. a typical work day consisted of getting reprimanded for unimportant tasks and checked up on with sticky notes EVERYWHERE to make sure youre doing your job. more work is created by the manager creating messes for you to clean up

Fun to help people, others can make the job stressful when they get upset. New things to learn when County moves forward with new programs.  Makes the job challenging but rewarding.

I worked as a Corrections Officer for a few years and it’s a tough career to stay in. Nights/weekends/Holidays and forced OT makes it non-family friendly. Benefits are great, PTO is great. Toxic work environment being in a jail. 

Management doesn't care about consumers or employees. Many employees get targeted and bullied. Unusually high turnover due to no support and unhappiness.

The department that I work in is hard as the parties that need assistance in the family department are either very angry or hurt.  You need to be compassionate.

I worked for them for twenty years, employee in good standing, and they booted me. They decided to spend more money to push elderly residents onto another company than it would have to take care of them.
