Pros

The CFO is the heart and soul of the agency, although over-worked and under appreciated. The employees do the best that they can while dealing with ever-shifting management decisions and priorities. The agency offers many programs and services that are of benefit to the community.

Cons

Michele Johnson, president/CEO is the embodiment of bad management practices. If anyone is looking for an example of how not to manage a business and its employees, look no further. Discussions about employees that should be had in private, between the CEO and COO, instead happen in the hallways within earshot of other employees. The turnover is ridiculous most employees announce their departure by just no longer showing up to work, others leave mid-shift. If it were one or two employees that did this that would be one thing, but when it happens again and again...look to management. The majority of current employees are just biding their time while pursuing other employment. The CEO runs the agency with a do as I say, not as I do ethos. Employees are responsible for reminding her on a daily basis of tasks she needs to accomplish. I'm sorry but aren't you too old to need a babysitter? It is not my job to constantly remind you to do your job! If you get on her bad side she will just stop talking to you and/or responding to emails, very professional Michele, very professional! The only way to advance is by being someone that the CEO perceives as someone that she can control and manipulate. The minute you buck her, look out it's the beginning of the end.

Pros

The services they offer are actually worth it for the average client. Most of it is free and there are a few (1or 2) employees that genuinely care about the product provided to the community.

Cons

drama dram drama. I have never seen this level of unsupportive coworker relationships. Made me think back to high school she said she said.
