Management at Emmaus is toxic. Gossip, favoritism, and cliques. Managers will even lie to their superiors about DSPs, and if you don’t plead your case well, you’re out. Basically, if a supervisor doesn’t like you, count your days.
Even when Associate Directors know the ACSM & CSM(Managers) are in the wrong, they back them up. DSPs get almost no support, and some days it feels impossible just to do your job. The company really needs to start fresh with new management altogether.
The company doesn’t hire based on emotional intelligence anymore, so a lot of managers just don’t care and definitely aren’t client centered or worker centered. Instead of supporting staff, they spend more time looking for reasons to write people up. It feels like everything is a threat, “do this or you’ll get written up.” The sad part is, this job is supposed to be about CARING and management has completely lost sight of that.
