Pros

The residents and families are great. The salary is good and the benefits are good as well.

Cons

The management is unprofessional. The DON spends all day primping in a mirror, playing fart sounds on her cell phone during morning meeting, she is only there for the free house keeper and paycheck. The BOM is rude to everyone she comes in contact with. She repeatedly talks to residents, family members and staff in the same manner you would to scold a 5 year old child. She doesn't know her own job. She downgrades all of the staff. Her employees are constantly on edge because of her. She gets away with every complaint made on her, because that is just how she is. Abuse is abuse no matter what in my eyes.

Pros

Great benefits, great work/life balance, great pay. Lots of opportunity. Kindred is ranked the 10th best place to work in the state for a reason, and if you're in IS it might be the best overall.

Cons

Downtown, young company doesn't have as much stability.

Pros

The opportunities in the company, they prefer to hire from within.

Cons

The facility does not have the freedom to make its own decisions, the facility is very micro-managed. 'Everyone" knows that each facility is very unique and corporate should be able to take this into account when making decisions on how to run it. Employees, from housekeeping to management, should be heard and opinions should be taken very seriously. These are the people who are actually in the day to day running of the facility; who know what is best for the patients and staff. (Some) Corporate and (some) senior management people are very quick to point out what is wrong/ what has not been done, but very slow to commend staff on their efforts. They come in like they are god, no smiles or words of encouragement. The staff comment on this all the time, and they wonder why they are still there----and they answer their own question----they love their patients and the people they work "with".
