Pros

Autonomous job in which you don't have someone watching your every move. You are free to decide how to get things done.

No established career path. No raises. Poor organizational communication. Poor training processes.

Pros

Some of the clients, mid management, and co-workers are great.

Cons

There is favoritism. Some people got away with a lot because they "donated" to the company. Meanwhile, they fired a disabled Veteran, and denied him unemployment. All because the President didn't like him. Also, the President is nothing but a greedy tyrant. She makes about 250,00 a year while the rest of us made starvation wages. She claims this company is all about the "clients." But in reality, it's all about money. In fact, most of the clients hate Rise and want to leave!

Pros

Very client centered. Workers are very dedicated and focused on going the distance for clients and working as a team. Creative staff.Variety in daily tasks .

Cons

Understaffed for workload leads to exhaustion and burnout for many employees, low pay compared to effort required of staff. Micromanagement from immediate leadership and no communication with senior leadership. Raises scheduled and not based on performance. Benefits package minuscule.
