Stay Away - Anonymous employee Taproot Community Support Services Employee Review

- Deep rooted belief in relationship and healthy workplace, which leads to improved quality of service for everyone they support. - Incredible flexibility around family and personal needs - Ongoing work being done to ensure direct supervisors of front line staff are trauma-informed and relate this to how they work with and support their staff, not just the supported individuals. - Pay is great - higher than the average. Though it is highly dependent on government contracts they do their best to ensure the benefits are good for their staff in the areas they have more control over. - Space for everyone to be heard - they just need to speak up. Emphasis on creating safe spaces for everyone to feel safe to speak up and ask questions. - Invest in meaningful training for all levels of the organization - Really great vision moving forward - Hear the input from staff and make the changes needed to make the work easier where they can.

- Heavily reliant on government funding for staff wages - this can't be helped in this field, it's just a con that all social service agencies face. Taproot does a great job of doing what they can to increase benefits and perks in other areas.

Strong values, exciting initiatives, great management, good pay and benefits, rewarding work
