Vantaggi
InnovAge provides the unique opportunity to work with an organization and gain experience within a reality and population unlike any other. You will come to know people with crippling diseases, disorders and disabilities who will all touch your heart. Some of whom have come to peace with their situation and others who test all of your patience. They don’t always cooperate, but the greatest reward is functioning to improve the lives of others. You will be paid too of course. They offer decent health insurance, dental, 401k and match a few % after a few years of dedicated self-sacrifice.
Svantaggi
What started out as a really great opportunity has been unmasked like a scooby doo ghost. Revealing the creature we are all too familiar with that favors quantity over quality yet demands both. Cutting corners at the comfort and expense of it’s greatest assets, their staff and participants, Innovage creates a potentially dangerous scenario for such a fragile population. Many team members are incredibly overloaded. The company has lost sight of the previous mission before becoming a growth-focused money machine. It was a great(er) place to work before the for-profit switch.
