Pros

Excellent work life balanced. Advocates is a company that care about their employees as much as they care about the members they serve. It is very therapeutic , professional and progressive workplace. Excellent training opportunities.

Cons

While there aren't many downsides, the only things that comes to mind is the pay. Passion doesn't pay the bills in this economy.

Thank you for sharing feedback about your time working at Advocates. Our goal is to cultivate a welcoming community where all employees feel respected and valued, and we’re so glad to hear that you had a positive experience. We also appreciate your note about compensation and acknowledge that pay is a challenge across our industry, with funding rates typically set by state agencies and third-party insurers. We’re united with other providers at both the state and national level in advocating for improved funding and fair wages that recognize the vital work of human services employees. At Advocates, we endeavor to provide the most competitive wages and benefits possible – it is our top priority. We encourage those interested in advancing pay equity to consider becoming involved with The Caring Force, the grassroots advocacy initiative of the Providers’ Council. Again, thank you for sharing your experiences at Advocates – if you have additional feedback, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at HREmployeeExperience@Advocates.org.
