Avantages
It's not unemployment, but frankly some jobs are worse than not working.
Inconvénients
I've worked in many stressful, even high-conflict environments before coming to CRC. I've never worked anywhere that accepted managers screaming and swearing at subordinates as normal and reasonable behavior. I witnessed this first-hand several times in my own department, and I've heard of similarly appalling treatment happening in other departments across the organization. The entire org is rotten. HR is untrustworthy and retaliation against employees is common when they do work up the nerve to report their concerns—read others' reviews here on Glassdoor for examples. CRC's leadership team is an absolute joke. Rick Doucet is the most contemptible man I have ever had the displeasure of meeting, and the only managers who've survived his 15-plus years as CEO either don't have spines or don't have morals. As they say, "a fish rots from the head down." Every person I've talked to who works for any of CRC's neighboring community & mental health organizations cringes when I tell them where I used to work. I am sure CRC would be the laughingstock of the Front Range among mental health professionals, were it not for the real harm I fear they cause to our community by being an incompetent dumpster fire of a service provider. I met some wonderful people during my time there. I have not met a single employee of that operation whose title was higher than "supervisor" who I respect. All of them treat their teams like fiefdoms, treat their people like trash, and treat their mission like a punchline. I never felt I was made to work excessive hours, but my every waking moment away from work was filled with the dread of having to report back the next business day. I had great coworkers and a great lead, and they're the only reason I made it as long as I did. DO NOT WORK HERE. If you absolutely must, then have an exit strategy at the ready from day one, and document everything. I promise you, you'll need it.
