Pros

No sick hours. Your PTO (paid time off) will cover for any time you were out of work due to illness. You receive 3 hours of PTO per paycheck. No competitive pay, No respectful raises. Raises are usually 10-25% of a dollar every year. (For Example: Your raise will be about .11 cents a year.) Your taxes will be impacted, You make less than the national average yet pay more in taxes. No way to bargain for better pay. Not enough people stay long enough to create a union to ensure better pay. Management shows little to absolute zero care of your wellbeing/career development/cost of living expenses. We receive millions every year by partnering with CDCR, yet consistently are told that there is "no money" available for raises etc. Most successful re-entry program in San Diego, CA yet staff are treated like inmates in regards to false promises. No management accountability. No town-hall meetings to assess facility requirements. Corecivic CEO D. Hininger's reported salary for the 2024 Fiscal Year was almost 8 million. Average Corecivic Re-Entry Services staff salary in San Diego, CA [$50k/yr] in 2025. Average salary needed to live in San Diego CA in 2025? [$110k/yr].

Cons

You get to see how a dysfunctional company runs. You get to take what you learned to other much better companies out there.

Pros

Having the opportunity of giving encouragement to and keeping hope alive in both inmates and staff in an often dark place to live and work. Excellent pay, hours, and benefits

Cons

I wrote a review in 2019("Perspectives") as a former academic instructor when the education department was eliminated at LPCC. I worked for a CoreCivic competitor and left to return to CoreCivic. I have since worked at two other facilities, and now am again a former employee of CoreCivic(14 years total). Something I've observed at these facilities: Opacity, lack of integrity, lack of transparency, lack of honesty, and lack of empathy and compassion.
