Must take vacation days for holidays that other nonprofits and companies give off automatically (Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc.)
Pay is not competitive
Time off is not competitive compared to other nonprofits or schools (because you have to use six vacation days for holidays)
Extremely high turnover (not just direct care staff, which is what they tell you in the interview - I've been here almost a year and a majority of people around me already are newer than I am - I've only worked for two other places in my career and this is truly eye opening)
HR is awesome at recruiting and will dazzle you - one ploy they use is getting you to come in at a lower salary than you're currently making with the caveat "in six months we'll re-evaluate and adjust accordingly" but that adjustment doesn't come through
From the outside, and in interviews, it seems like SUCH a great place to work - but once you get inside those doors, you start to wonder, "Is it just me?" and once you begin to open up to others you realize that most people are miserable - one person even said that choosing to work for Devereux is the worst decision they have ever made in their entire life
