Pros

Seeing a pattern of addressing only the pros and rarely having any accountibiloty to comments in Cons section, Pros will not be listed here.

Cons

-Hyper critical work culture to point that compromises employee personal and office morale -Almost no field support and field between on-site field team is almost impossible -Field supervisors are spread very thin in responsibility which causes the above issues -Employee personal dislikes are apparent on teams which lead to discordant team dynamics. Ex. Team member will laugh and joke with some team members, but other get professional, but near frigid responses. -Favoritism is rampant creating a less than ideal work environment.

CHA Response

CHA does have lots of opportunities and so many great locations to work from. I agree, our growth can be overwhelming at times, and I can see how some may feel left behind. But its that growth that drives tremendous opportunity. It’s a balance for sure, and admittedly, it’s not for everyone. I’m sorry to see you go and wish you the best of luck.
