Jewish Community Center Employer Reviews

Heavy phone volume, returning calls and emails to members

I learned the value of hard work. Multi-tasked by handling more responsibilities (i.e. phone calls, emails, financial billing, scheduling appointments, payroll, supervising swim team/lifeguards)

Management is friendly and supportive. Conducted weekly productive meetings.

Co-workers are friendly – more... and cheerful.

The most enjoyable part of the job is interacting with members, staff and children. – less

What I would do was coach kids ages 7-12 in both soccer and basketball in Winter/Summer. I taught them fundamentals and skills they needed to perform better in games. My co-workers were very professional and I got along with them well. The hardest part of my job was dealing with the kids that had too much candy before the actual practice started, which – more... lead to a lot of extra running on my part. I loved working with people hand to hand as I am a very good people person. – less

Research wellness programs to receive funding
Assist individuals during exercise
Develop and present weight loss seminar for adults

Enjoyed working in facilities management and supervising a total staff of 8 maintenance techs. There was always work to be done and I was successfull in implementing procedures for our team.

I enjoy knowing I make a difference in people's lives on a daily basis. While taking a day off was rare, I would always receive numerous phone calls inquiring as to my return.

Love to work with children and I love using Hebrew to teach and be creative using the 2 lang Hebrew/English.

the work schedule was flex-time which worked well with life work balance. I was in the accounting department so typical day was doing receivables payables account recons and ournal entries. My Manager was great and fair. The Director was not as acceptable but was not horrible. Co-workers were up beat positive for the most part. The haradest part afor – more... me was dealing with copious amounts of cash and change from various department it was not difficult just tedious. The most enjoyable was being able to work in an accounting inviornment with good people. – less

Average work day was 8-10 hours. Management was loose provided daily exceptions were met.Enjoyed working with members and youth.

A typical day at work is coming into the infant room at 9:45 and I am greeted by smiles from the babies that are awake. I also get greeted cheerfully by my co-teachers. I play with the babies that are awake, give the babies that need bottles when it is their time to drink and feed babies at 11:00 when it is their lunch time. I change babies from 1:00-3:00. – more... I rock babies to sleep when necessary. I read to them, sing to them and play with them. When the weather is nice, we take them outside for fresh air. I have learned what entertains babies is very different than what entertains older children. Management is great, my boss loves me and I feel the same way. The hardest part of the job is when a baby vomits on me, but that is why I have a washing machine at home. The most enjoyable part of the job is the love that I get from the babies. – less

Action packed full time hours working with many students and families. Directed many teachers, participated in fundraising, special events, and co-directed summer camp.

Daily routines were placed for the kids. Typically the day would start off with homework, continued to some gym time along with play time for some creative, hands on projects for their imaginations to run wild. Story time would be towards the end of the day for the children to rest and enjoy their quiet winding down time.

I by far loved absolutely loved working at the JCC. I personally loved working here due to the fact that I felt at home. I had an exceptional rapport with all members and communicated with them sometimes in native tongue. This is a great place to work and the people were outstanding.

Enjoyed working with kids, Love watching them grow. Their love is out of this world.

Fun job but they didn't have a FT position for me.
I had this job 12 years ago so I can't remember much.

I made the schedule, made coffee and drinks, served food, did some light cleaning, and of course, chatted with customers-the wonderful people at the JCC!

Learned about pool maintenance.
Enjoy fitness area.
Management is very accomodating.
Time off is granted when needed.

My work at the JCC gave me more experience working with older adults. I learned about the challenges they experience and also how I could be of best help to them. This was not a clinically oriented internship but I benefited greatly from my direct supervisor as well as from my supervisor above.

Travel camp that involved going to several theme parks and attractions around the Orlando area.

This is a great start up job. High school kids would do great here. It's only part time, and minimum wage.
