Worst place to work in Houston! RUN!!! - Administrative Assistant Cenikor Foundation Employee Review

Lots of support and training. Mission minded

Lots of travel, more corporate than I’m used to.

The people who work in the treatment world for a non-profit are usually there because they’re great human beings - you’ll find some of the best coworkers you’ve ever had here.

The workload is unmanageable. The pay is well below market value. The managers are so overworked that even the good ones snap at their team. Why are members of the accounting team nicer than the leaders in HR? It makes me sick to my stomach how the managers in HR treated those on the HR team; almost every Friday after their big weekly meeting, they would all be in tears because of how they were spoken to. Employee mediations are a joke. Most of the people who work here I think are desperate for a job and have criminal backgrounds which makes it hard for them to leave to find a new job even when they’re being mistreated. Cenikor counts on that fact and takes advantage of their compassion for the clients and their belief in the mission as well as their desperation to have a job. You’re not forced to pay someone fair market rates when they can’t get a job hardly anywhere else.
