As much as I did enjoy the residents I worked with and for. Management made this place a drag. No communication them wants you full time but you are listed as part time. Gave the bad review since they won’t have me as contingent while I switched jobs for benefits and the one star is for not hiring my boyfriend saying how you thought he was on drugs for his shaking when he was off his medication. Talk about discrimination
