Pathways Employer Reviews

At pathways you work hard everyday clients are a joy co-workers and sometimes difficult and management is nonexistent but you never truly feel compensated for your work

A typical workday is busy with incoming mental health patients, incoming phone calls to be screened and transferred. All calls must be properly screened to determine whether the caller is a general call (ex: scheduling or canceling appt) or if they are in a crisis to contact a crisis team worker. (Please see my resume for more info on the job)

I've – more... learned that you never know what's going to happen from day to day in this kind of business but as long as you did your job as best as you could consistently.

I've learned how to take a leadership role. I started out as the back desk receptionist and after the lead receptionist moved on to a different position, I took the lead. I began directing anyone who would work with me at the back desk. Most tasks were given to me so I learned to multi task while managing the front desk and lobby full of patients from day to day.

In my occupation, I always keep in mind that I'm here to be an efficient worker not make friends. Yet I do my best to maintain a good work relationship with all of my co-workers.

The hardest part of my job is seeing some of the patients go through emotional problems.

The best part is knowing that by the time a patient has gotten into the process of receiving services, we've helped to make a positive change in their life. – less

I LOVE Pathways, from the residents, to the management and my coworkers. I felt like they were my second family there, and I became attatched to them all.

What I liked most about this job is to see the transformation take place in other people's life and getting the opportunity to witness and to be a part of. My co-workers were very kind hearted people that would sacrifice their time and energy for their clients. The hardest part of the job is having a client that you get to know really well go back out – more... and have a fatal overdose or some type of fatal accident. – less

Phones ringing, greeting clients,scheduling appointments and cancelling appointments.Directing calls to proper department,filing opening and closing files. All in all good day. Everyone works as a team player.

A typical day at work for me is very smooth sailing ,because i work nights. Since i've been here it has been a great learning experience far as knowing what you are dealing with and its going to be different each time. Mangement is awsome cnt complain about that. Co-workers are ok of course you going to have that one bad apple in that tree. The hardest – more... part of my job is when we have to do restraints or crisis intervention when the juviniles act out it's sad but also we have ensure the other consumers safety and ours as well. I enjoy my job the on the weekends because i have the weekends off. – less

Structure and management make the job stressful. But if your looking for something for “right now, until I get on my feet”, this is your job.

The pay didn't match the quality of work that was expected from the employees. The employees were lazy. In time of crisis, supervisor would pass the buck & wouldn't come in when she was supposed to. The most enjoyable part of the job was making a difference in the clients lives.

children, love 'em. learned a whole lot about different personalities.

performed all types of building maintanence,plumbing,electrical,heating and aircondition.

I worked for this company for many years. During the investigation of another staff member, manegment determined that I was guilty of something that I was not only NOT a part of, but they never bothered to investigate...AT ALL. I feel cheated and this was a career for me. Not a job. I loved what I did and I can tell you I did not do it for the money. – more... I risked personal safety everyday to help the disabled members of the community for minimal pay. I am very disappointed in Pathways as a whole. There are several other companies in the area that provide services for people with disabilites that even with the lack of pay they offer would be much better to work for. – less

If you have never done sales or any type of retail you can learn the in and out of how a store runs

I really enjoyed my experience as a student intern at Pathways! I worked with several women to help eliminate homelessness. I sought to provide different services that were needed to help women get on a positive track in life. Pathways is a great agency that has a positive role in the lives of homeless women and children.

Working with formerly homeless, severely mentally ill population who have been placed in independent housing units and supported by multi-disciplinary mental health team.

Difficult work environment – more... at times due to a very difficult patient population who are very sick and many with current or recent substance abuse problems. There is also a lack of Nursing/Medical Supervision.

Most enjoyable part of the job was getting to know my very unique and interesting patients and their stories. – less
