Disappointing at best - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Raleigh Rescue Mission

The pay is not nearly enough. The work environment is harsh. Raleigh rescue mission seems to have a superficial understanding of homelessness which is disappointing as an agency that serves individuals experiencing homelessness. Their new life plan is created on the assumption that they can fix an individuals housing with only employment and savings. The reality is it’s a lot more complex. Clients have to quit their jobs prior to coming into the shelter and work for free in vocational training. It’s feels like they exploit their clients. Staff get very little say in what happens and are often ignored or disregarded. Tension between shifts run high. By the time you learn your coworkers name they’ve probably been fired or quit. Turn over is the highest I’ve ever seen. There were many nights I came home incredibly frustrated or disappointed. I feel like Raleigh rescue does more damage to clients than actually assisting them. The culture is very here’s how you should do it vs asking the client what they want to accomplish and how we can walk besides them to help.
