Pros

Sarah Reed provides an excellent work-life balance, supportive and collaborative team environment, opportunities for movement/promotion within the organization, ongoing training and outstanding benefits. If you want to work for an organization that is truly making a positive difference in the lives of chidren and families, then this is the right place for you. Your coworkers/collegues will be professionals with service hearts. We work together to provide a safe, caring and supportive environment for our clients. It's a unique place to work that leaves you with a sense of pride at the end of the day because you have had the opportunity to help. Sarah Reed is the longest standing social services organization in the city of Erie and it's expanding. That means there will be more opportunities for employees to grow their careers. Great place to work!

Cons

As with any non-profit, Sarah Reed strives to increase minimum entry rates for direct care positions. They have made progress with this at the residential facility and that positive change will probably continue into other programs. They have listened and are responding, so that is great! Direct care positions are high-stress jobs, but there is a lot of support and promotion of self-care.
