Save Yourself - Program Services Coordinator Project Return Employee Review

The organization has slowly but surely fallen apart since Bettie Kirkland suddenly resigned as CEO in 2022. The leadership team she left behind had absolutely no clue what they were doing without her. Due to incompetence, laziness, disorganization, and lack of experience, our funding began rapidly declining, along with the number of services we provided to participants, until we were offering a husk of what we did just 2 years prior. The feeling every day of not having the necessary resources to actually help the participants you work with in any way caused burnout like nothing else. When the circus of ineptitude eventually reached a breaking point, they gutted the staff without warning, laying off 70-80% of the services and social enterprises teams in one fell swoop right before the holidays with zero severance and all insurance benefits terminated immediately. This is how much the leadership team cares about holding onto their astonishingly outsized salaries at any expense to their employees and participants alike. At this point, the organization is essentially a résumé-writing and job-outfitting center, though even calling it a “center” does it too much justice. If they somehow manage to get their house in order enough to hire any new people, don’t even consider applying. Avoid this place like the plague unless you crave misery.
