St. Clare's Housing

Work hours can be negotiable and the management shows good enough flexibility and empathy. If you are interested in an "Affordable housing development" to address homelessness issue, it is a nice work place to learn and utilize your skills. The organization is in a growth stage, so you might experience a delay in work process. However, the management communicates with your feedback well transparently whether the answer is yes or no. 
The organization does not involve in direct support for clients. So you might experience difficulty to maintain professional boundary with clientele if you are fully geared to working on the front-line. However, you will enjoy cultivate a community environment by communicating with clients directly. 
The management team shows interest in staff growth and benefit.
Overall, it has been a great work place.

Mentorship within a supportive environment
Community and Partnership Coordinator - 877 Yonge Street
It’s rare to be mentored within community and social services sector. The director of Community and Partnership is more than a supervisor, she is a mentor. I experienced generous mentorship in the role of Community and Partnerships Coordinator. The office environment is professional, collegial and supportive. No workplace cliques and co-workers truly uplift and support each another. Excellent benefits and flex time. You make your scheduled and can flex as needed.

Pros
Excellent benefits, work-life balance, professional, respectful environment

Cons
Needs more office space-they are currently renovating to create more space

The management team is great. They put a lot of effort into creating an inclusive culture and emphasize the importance of work and life balance. . There are great perks too. The management at every level continually show employee appreciation.
Working in property management isn't for everyone but the management makes sure that the employee settles in nicely and has help and guidance always. The management team takes the effort to reach out to all staff for concerns, issues, ideas and suggestions.
The management is always willing to send employees for training. The company's mission is very unique and once the employee understands it fully, it becomes easy and rewarding to commit to the cause.


A typical day at work involved putting out a lot of fires with little support from many areas: management, colleagues, lawyers, the system...
I was placed at a number of buildings which were particularly "busy" and sometimes it felt like the wild west. No matter how much you are told to disengage you will still witness traumatic events.
I can't say I felt appreciated or was ever told my potential was seen. I poured my heart into the role and made a difference, and left feeling slightly betrayed. The worst part of the job being helpless and like my safety was in danger and having nothing done about it. 

My position allows for me to combine front line with administrative duties. It pays me well for my experience/education. The benefits are good, though vacation time could be better - 3 weeks for what can be very stressful days with dealing with people's trauma is not enough & days added to vacation time takes years! My personal manager has been fantastic and flexible. 
Work teams are siloed to the different buildings, which can make the work isolating at times. Bringing the staff together for growth and getting to know each other would be beneficial for everyone. Would also be nice to know those at the top (Sr. Management) know who their people are. They are almost never heard from. 
Overall, 90% satisfied with the company. 

I work at St. Clare's largest building with over 244 units. I work in a supportive team of Community Partnership Coordinators and Property Managers. Together we work hard to ensure residents live in a safe and secure building with plenty of community development programs and dedicated case management support from our partner agencies. The staff are friendly and job is challenging, so we rely on each other's support and feedback everyday to get the job done. Community Partnership & Coordinator staff are supported by Senior Management with weekly clinical supervision. 

You go home feeling accomplished everyday because you know you are working with an organziation that is making an impact in a City with a terrible Housing Crisis. The organization has strong values with policies and procedures that have been proven to be successful for over two decades. 

The organization is expanding which will result in some changes and growing pains as any other place would especially after the effects of Covid. 



St. Clare's has a lively work environment, with good coworkers and clear goals/asks/deliverables. Work feels important and impactful and there is room to grow. Organization is much better structured than other non-profits I've worked at where there was regular and expected high stress, changing goal-posts, and sparse staffing. My work feels manageable, challenging in a rewarding way. I enjoy being part of an expanding organization and the testing/building of new structures that goes along with that.

Every day has something new in it, and the work is meaningful.  When there are challenges, the supervisors are helpful.

The compensation is above average, and the benefits/pension plan is good.

I was one of 5 Hired 3 quit and i was let go with 0 reason and 0 warning clients are very challenging but the management was worse every time someone yells all procedures are thrown out the window and they immediately get what they want they will burn you out and then complain you don't work fast enough
