From the perspective of a staff member
I was a staff at this company for 7 years. They are highly unethical with their staff. I even heard several rumors of attempts at unionizing. All three staff involved in this unionizing attempt were let go within the following two months. I witnessed many staff let go because they had been there too long and their salaries were too high, replaced by less experienced, lower paid employees. I witnessed several staff members promoted to positions they were not qualified for simply because they were cheaper than hiring qualified staff (including myself who was made CRW2 within two weeks, despite no education nor experience). I witnessed several breaches of privacy, primarily by a woman who is/was highly ranked in the company. In fact most ethical concerns with this company are directly related to her. I will not name her to protect her privacy, anyone who has worked there will know immediately who I'm talking about anyway. I know of one incident where she lured a male staff to flirt with her so she could fire him based on sexual harassment. She wore provocative clothing and flirted with him to elicit the flirtation, then bragged about her scheme afterward. She's like a cat, she likes to toy with people before going in for the kill. She fired one staff because the door was locked when she arrived and she had to knock to get in. She accused the staff of deliberately locking her out. It wasn't even that staff member who had locked the door, at 9pm, an appropriate time to have a door locked. In fact, she was there in an official capacity as landlord, but had not given the legally required 24 hour notice of entry, and should have been locked out anyway. I witnessed a number of other inappropriate infractions by her and others.
Please don't get me wrong, the clients are primarily well treated. It is the staff that are abused here. The clients are often protected from management by their staff, many of whom (like myself) chose to stay in their positions, despite the abuse, because they really care about the individuals they work with.
