      Business outlook

      Pros

      PTO, 19 paid holidays, your coworkers

      Cons

      You won’t ever get a raise working here, upper level HR is extremely hands off unless they’re emailing about someone leaving, CEO is very uninvolved in the work being done, the amount of turnover is absolutely ridiculous that you’ll almost always be doing at least two peoples jobs, supervisors don’t get enough support from higher ups to be able to adequately support their staff, and if someone in a higher position makes a mistake they’re almost never held accountable.

      Great place to work, doing great work - anonymous reviews suck

      Business outlook

      Pros

      The people who work here care about people who need help and the leaders care about the people who work here. Seeing peoples lives get better and the stories about clients success is the best part - knowing I helped. I had heard about the terrible things people are saying on here so finally came to see and there are some horrible people who post here! I hate these sites! Don’t want to But I am speaking up now. In my about 3 years, people have come and gone - like everywhere. Those termed - should have been and some probably sooner than they were. Others who left should have done it quicker. Those are the ones saying cr@p on here. Newcap managers spending a lot of time to find new grants and access to money to HELP CLIENTS and keep people working here at decent pay, with great benefits. I mean great benefits. I pay nothing for health and dental, disability short &long term. Tons of paid time off and flexibility for my life and kids. With the stuff in Washington since January plus the COVID help is ending, people are worried about funds from grants but the CEO tells us what is happening and I believe her. Every time I have asked her questions or anything, she always has time for me and I know how much that lady works so I appreciate it. Other leaders same. Newcap can now bill for a new way to help people find places to live and we have to do things a bit different and that is stressing people. Workers need to stop worrying and complaining and do their stuff right with helping the clients with what they need and be the best for them. People who don’t work here anymore, need to get a life and go away.

      Cons

      Not as much pay as I would like - but that is always true and wanting more money yes. Some workers who spend time too much time gossiping and complaining. Helping people find housing they can get into and afford and keep can be hard. Some people have pasts and landlords are picky so that can be hard. Grants have lots of rules and paperwork. Thats the job but some stuff we have to do seems like it is just to make it harder on clients. Newcap doesn’t do only one thing so there is lots of learn. Leaders make more than me but I don’t want those jobs because people suck - lots of them on here!
