HOLLYBURN FAMILY SERVICES : carrières et emplois

The company is a for profit company that doesn't want to hear suggestions or implementations do not speak your mind walk on egg shells and keep your mouth shut they will let you go if you challenge anything so don't rock the boat remember they need to keep contracts even at the expense of staff and clients so sad a culture of scared management who brush everything under the rug for fear of losing the contract.......boo...scared and pathetic

Very easy questions.

It didn’t take long to get hired but their hiring practices are also questionable. They’ve had Supervisor position turnover quite quickly due to lack of due diligence on their part in interview/hiring process. They interview (but mostly talk at you rather than find out about you and your skills) and check references, obtain criminal reference check clearance and that’s about it. Beware of misinformation in the interview process of the exact benefits and coverage. Many things are misspoken and if you are unable to advocate for yourself, god luck in advocating for your clients. But when you do advocate for yourself against misspoken details by hiring staff, they look down upon you and hold it against you. They’ve had several threats of legal action and have paid people out to leave quietly. BEWARE...

Fast and Nice in other departments.

It seems as though one would need to be a female in order to be treated with respect in this organization. Disciplinary measures are a foreign concept in this organization even when there are many complaints from colleagues and external partners. Stress leave and staff turnover is very high and no one seems to actually care enough to address the root problems (or ANY of the problems). This agency lacks any sense of fairness or trust on the team. People are permitted to treat each other very unprofessionally in person, by phone and via email with no consequences. When matters are brought forward, feminist theory is thrown in your face as to somehow justify poor behaviour. Director overly shares information from one colleagues supervision session with other colleagues. When people don’t follow clear directives from the Director, she chalks it up to being “that person’s issue” and “doesn’t take it on herself”. Therefore, change and discipline is never on the radar. Questionable practices at best. This agency has a very poor reputation in community and partners are quite articulate of their feels and experiences of working with this agency.

There is no Culture for the accounting team

They hired me on the spot. Went in, filled out forms, worked as relief worker with no benefits or holidays. There are no positions available except 24 hour shifts if you like working for free.
