Get in and get out
Direct Support Associate (Current Employee), Colorado Springs, CO – July 31, 2012
Pros: certifications
Cons: no lunch or breaks at all, low pay for the field, unresponsive management and higher, constant fight to keep the job
Mosaic is good for one thing only, CPR and First aid certifying it's workers in the first two weeks of work. After then, the job becomes a fight. A fight to keep the job and keep work/home life separated. Management will pick favorites and then try to get the ones they don't like fired.

The job itself isn't hard if you can get past the toileting and – more... dealing with behaviors. I love my clients and they are very fun people to be around. Staff on the other hand, not so much. I don't have much good to say about this job. – less

not a good place
Direct Support Associate (Former Employee), Denver CO – July 24, 2012
I have worked for mosaic Denver office.... do not work for them, management is pretty much inexistent. The R.N. never answers her emergency phone when calling regarding medical questions. What is worse, because management doesn t do their job to 'manage' and give ok's the workers get in trouble and written up for every thing.....
The work hours are – more... ridicolous, while 8 months pregnant I was made to work by myself with 4 clients, one of them who is bed bound and needs everything done... 100% phisical transfer, 100% shower and so on..... for 17 hours in a row! When I complained that I needed help and had doctor's orders to not do certain things, I was told to sit and lift my feet up! On my 3 day of work, without any training, med administration certification or anything else I was left to work by my self for 13 hours, the consumers did not get their medication and the bed bound consumer got no water or food for 13 hours.... management as well as manager on call turned off their phones so they could enjoy their new year's eve.
Do not work for this company especially if you want to make a carreer out of it, management will not help you grow within the company and will do nothing to provide training or what else. – less

Free form fun with training
Microsoft Specialist (Current Employee), San Francisco, CA – July 23, 2012
Pros: dynamic work place
Cons: contract based, so we have to fight every 6 months to get renewed.
For Mosaic, my program is special. We are one the few full time positions, and one of the few that pay decently well for the amount of work that we put in on a day to day basis.

Daily, we train Best Buy employees, train ourselves, train customers, and then we promote selling, sell, and provide customer service for every product line that Microsoft – more... touches. That's every brand of computer, including Apple on occasion, we have to be able to answer questions about almost anything Tech, since Microsoft is involved in practically everything or else someone's computer is... but for me this is the dynamic fun environment that I love. I just hate slow days. – less

Fantastic mission, great staff but poor leadership
Senior Vice President / Chief Risk Officer (Former Employee), Omaha, NE – July 18, 2012
Pros: mission
Cons: executive leadership
As a faith-based organization, Mosaic provides quality services to people with intellectual disabilities, which is a mission of great importance. Mosaic's staff does an outstanding job of providing services to these people, helping them to live a life of their own choosing. Their executive leadership, however, leaves a lot to be desired. They have taken – more... a culture that was based on the Mosaic Promise of truth, integrity and teamwork and turned in into one of fear and distrust by criticizing, chastising or firing those who don't agree with the strategy du jour. – less

Great in the beginning, but honeymoon doesn't last
Field Representative (Former Employee), Charlotte, NC – July 11, 2012
Pros: extremely flexible schedule
Cons: work alone, no opportunity for advancement
You get to travel around your state and interact with people across a wide variety of stores. Typically, you would teach employees about your products and quiz them, clean up displays and make sure interactive units are in working order. I learned through this job how to get along with people that I didn't know, earn their trust, and become friends – more... and colleagues. The hardest part was being motivated--very few exciting things happened, and the opportunity to host events and fun activities was almost non-existent. With no incentive to train more employees or meet sales/training goals, it was incredibly difficult to feel excited to get out and work. When I concerns or frustrations about being motivated, I was told to keep my mouth shut and just keep doing what I was doing. – less

Excellent health insurance, PTO and ELR benenfits, challenging, stimulating atmosphere, enjoyed clients, basically fun
Direct Service Assistant (Former Employee), Holdrege, NE – July 6, 2012
Pros: all meals on shift were free, the clients were fun, and staff and managers were supportive and excellent
Cons: i have worked in some form of direct care since i was twenty one and just desired a change
I drove van to pick up clients from workshop, did direct care, took care of household by cooking, doing laundry and cleaning, ran training programs, ran behavioral programs according to agency policy and the individuals' behavioral program, took them in van on outings, administrated medications, and did all required charting. I learned patience, good – more... communication skills, and how to talk residents down during a behavior. I found the managers to be well qualified, supportive, and excellent. Some of the behaviors were challenging, but I learned patience, developed good communication skills and could usually talk them down, and if not, other staff were easily available for assistance when a MANDT hold was required. My coworkers were all supportive and wonderful and the managers described as easy to get along with. The fun I had with the clients was th most enjoyable part of the job. – less

Marketing Manager (Former Employee), All United States – July 2, 2012
Pros: trusted to be in charge of your own products' placement, sales in retail stores
Cons: great if social/customer skills are all you want to use, or want to practice.-some lie about being in store, when they are not!
Need to be extremely flexible, a practice job. Only management is full-time. Having to deal with all part-time employees, about 10,000 in US.

Fast growing company.

Direct Support Associate (Former Employee), Garden City, KS – June 25, 2012
Work with intellectual disabled adults to help them live normal lives. Help them budget their money, grogery shop, clean and cook. My individuals taught me a lot about life and how we can't take things for granted. managemnt and my co-workers were great. Always there when you needed help and always willing to help. Hardest part of the job, well I don't – more... really know. The most enjoyable part of the job was just working with the individuals and making a difference in their lives. – less

Excellent job for high school graduate. Good intro to mental health field
Direct Support Associate (Current Employee), Osceola, IN – June 18, 2012
Pros: individual healthcare plan is favorable
Cons: hourly compensation cannot support a family.
Spend your mornings assisting individuals with hygiene, meds, meals, and transportation. Afternoons, take one individual into the community to mingle before picking up individuals who were dropped off in the morning at "day program" sites. Once back at the individuals' residence, complete paperwork for your shift.

Individuals with disabilities have – more... the ability to enjoy life as much as people without disabilities It"s all relative.

lower-level management is supportive of line-workers. Upper management does not support either.

Co-workers are supportive of one another. It's a family atmosphere.

The paperwork is imposing (includes computer data entry). And still growing.

Working with the individuals in the community is the job highlight. – less

Great part time job, but lacking in benefits and job promotion opportunity.
Field Service Representative (Former Employee), Irving, TX – May 8, 2012
Cons: driving involved, wear and tear on the vehicle and high gas prices.
The flexibility of the job and variety of jobs to perform were most interesting. I also liked the independence of working alone and at times, with others.

Team oriented, productive environment
Finance/Accounting Intern (Former Employee), Riverview, FL – April 2, 2012
Mosaic was a great company to intern for. Everything done on a day to day basis was team oriented, as every employee would have various meetings to attend each week to discuss different strategies and such. Once employed, they promote within the company and many of the people with management positions are employees that started their professional careers – more... with Mosaic. Mosaic values all of it's employees and they make sure that the employees know how much they care. – less
