Pros

Loved the residents and most of my coworkers. We became like family.

Cons

Very low pay, company does not care about associates or residents. just the bottom line. Residents are routinely neglected due to being severely understaffed! Think 2 people to care for 80 residents for 8 + hours! Highest turnover of any company I've ever seen! Staff gets fed up and quits during shift weekly! Management plays favorites with employees. Certain people routinely miss work, come in late, fail drug tests etc with no consequences BUT other employees that aren't part of the favorites , get written up and fired for the smallest infractions! Amazing place to work if you are willing to brown nose. I have personally seen people get let go for being "tardy" after reporting a favorite for drug use. I have seen an employee drug tested 5 times straight that are "chosen randomly " . I have also personally had an employee tell me they reported to management abuse and severe bullying by a group of associates , that was completely ignored . The group happened to be part of "the favorites" as they are called . The employee eventually asked to be transferred and changed cities because of it. The raises are a joke. In the 2 years I was employed, I had 2 raises of $.08 And $.14 per hour and these were given with good evaluations! Residents complain daily about things being stolen and certain employees are never investigated for it , even when it happened on their hall during their shift! It became absolutely ridiculous. I never had a problem myself because I stayed to myself, did my job and left. I did leave when I got hired at competitor of the company with a lot more money, better hours and management that cares. I'm sure that not all of legend companies are as bad as mine was but I wouldn't work their again for any amount of money and I wouldn t trust them to care for my dog!! Main office was told about a lot of this when I left. Not sure of anything was ever checked put ad I don't have thank you with anyone there anymore.

Pros

The residents are the pros. I enjoy taking care of them and making them happy.

Cons

Expecting a 5 star hospitality experience with instantaneous response times for every resident. Management does not help when there are staffing shortages. They won’t help answer call bells or assist in the kitchen. Legend wants to run the shift with the bare minimums for staff to resident ratios. Having to be an aide changing soiled briefs to then passing meals in the dining room is insanitary. They want you to do extra work but don’t want to pay overtime. Your shift is for 8 hours minus 30 minutes for an unpaid meal break that you must take. So you never get a 40 hour work week pay, only 37.5.
