This job can be very rewarding, but the mentor network makes it one of the horrible work experience you can face as a adult. . - Assistant Manager Sevita Employee Review

Pros

Getting to know the kids ,taking them places and teaching them.

Cons

The verbal and physical a.buse from the kids that the mentor network allows them to do to staff . As a human being we have our rights ,but the mentor network tell us we don't. if a kid attacks you you can not protect yourself,you have to allow them to hit you or you have to block it. You can not touch them at all .if they hurt you the mentor network would tell you, you can not call the cop this is apart of your job . I did not sign up to be a kid punching bag.the more you call higher management they will tell you the same ,this is apart of your job.the mentor network do not give any kids consequences When kids abuse staff

Pros

Good relations with PBS sometimes Good pay

Cons

Management is horrible. You may get a good house manger, but their supervisor are terrible. They all get together in some type of clique and even have favorite employees where they put them in a new position simply because of their connections. The Program Directors and Area Directors lie on employees just to cover up their involvement and save themselves from being written up. There is no fairness when working at this company. You can get in trouble for something and a Program Director, Area Director, or even house manager can do the same thing and have their coworkers cover for them. They talk about chain of command a lot but when you actually follow it, it only comes back to bite you. If they want you gone your gone. I've seen it happen to two house mangers where one was lied on and almost faced criminal charges (now dismissed) and the other forced to leave or face a charge that was not their fault for problem that happened before they got there. It's all basically like a bad toxic parent and family. You can speak out to what's going on, but they refuse to listen or get mad because you're pointing it out. They speak In a raised voice, you match it ad get called disrespectful. You point out that they are doing the same thing and it's apparently how they talk. You talk about something private that's going on in your life between a manger or program Director and the next thing you know all your coworkers know.
