Worst Experience In My Career

Pros

I met a lot of outstanding clients, family members, and medical/healthcare professionals. Training is excellent. First and second level of management really embraces you and wants you to learn and succeed. Is always there for you via phone, text, or email. Good benefits. Base salary is good. Support from the corporate office in Payroll and IT are excellent. Company phone and iPad are appreciated.

Cons

The interview process is very long and I took this to mean they were very selective. Knew the negative reviews on Glassdoor had to be posted by under performing or disgruntled employees. Was told there would be life balance, growth potential, no weekends, and management really cared. Nothing could be further from the truth. Had been in my role for 2 1/2 months when management hired 2 VP's out of the major players in healthcare to come in and grow the company. Immediately the company went down the toilet. I have run multi - million dollar companies in my career and have not see anything the likes of how they rolled in and took over. It was no longer about the relationships you were building out in the field but the numbers. On July 2nd at 5:15 pm, Administrator and account reps where notified by email that we are to start working weekends with no comp time offered. This means you were to work 6 days a week. To hell with it if you have family, parents to take care of or plans. One weekend I had to hire my own caregiver to take care of my mother so I could put in my sales calls. I used to speak with my manager every day and was told I was doing an excellent job. Not to worry about a thing. One day my manager suddenly stopped speaking to me. I called, emailed and text asking her if everything was okay. Even asked if my job was on the line. Never heard from her unless it was a business question. Two weeks later I was released from my position because they could no longer afford my position. I had 8 appointments scheduled with major players in the upcoming two weeks. I asked them to please contact these people to let thing know that I was no longer there. It did not happen and now my professional reputation has been compromised. At networking events people have come up to me to ask why I stood them up or did not call to cancel or change the meeting. This is now a completely different company who knows nothing about leadership, the value of top talent, ethics, and professionalism.

Very disorganized, chaotic and a waste of time

Pros

I loved most of the people I worked with

Cons

Low pay for job duties and they sugar coat job expectations until you actually take the job then you find out what is expected of you. They expect you to always be available 24/7 and be married to your phone night and day including weekends. The scheduling system is the most disorganized system I have ever seen and the employees are working more in crisis mode most of the time. The caregivers are unhappy (wouldn't you be if your schedule changed all the time or were called to work last min because "it's an emergency") The system seriously needs to be fixed ASAP or this company is going to continue to lose money, clients and continue to have a bad caregiver morale. Run away from this company as fast as you can!! I was shocked at how badly the office was run for such a well known company.

Thank you for your post. I would love to hear more about your interview process and what was described to you about the position you took at Silverado. If you have any suggestion on how we can improve our scheduling system and communication to our caregivers and personal attendants, we would love to know.

Corporate is a political mess

Pros

You are made to feel like you are contributing to a greater good, you help change people's lives.

Cons

There are internal politics that prevent them from walking their talk. Each corporate department has its own agenda and they often time don't see eye-to-eye. This causes tension at the corporate level and unclear direction to the line staff.
