Pros

None really. Except the rewarding feeling you get taking care of people with disabilities.

Cons

They will say anything just to hire you. Lie to you about bonuses. When you bring up the bonus they conveniently act like they don’t know what you’re talking about. They only had one person staffed at a place that should have had two. They hired two people for a one person position and then played games on who gets the position. They do NOT train their workers. The only thing they trained me on was my cpr class that I had to retake where the lady was mean to me and very belittling. Kept taking calls in the middle of the presentation. Then cried about her divorce to me. Not to mention, she kept asking me to not take the class but I wanted to retake it so I can brush up on my skills. My boss was very mean as well. Very unprofessional. Yells at you over text if you do something wrong when the issue is actually her fault. They hire people who aren’t qualified (don’t have a drivers license) then you’re stuck doing most of the work. They don’t fire people for no call, no shows. I called the boss of my boss and she was very mean too. Said that a person can be late or miss a shift 27 times before they’re fired, but this person didn’t show up on time to every single shift (WAY more than 27 times). They defend everything they do wrong. I was forced to work 18 hours and then my boss said I shouldn’t work a shift that long as if I wasn’t held against my will to stay. I could go on forever about what this company does wrong but all in all they don’t care about their workers or the residents. Not worth it in any way.

Pros

Meeting a variety of people and gratitude from clients Working for the company is okay for experience

Cons

May spend half of your paycheck on gas the company will not pay for Forced to work for clients too far away Management does not tell you information about the client before you accept If a client does not open the door or sends you away, you are not paid for your time and are out the gas money If you complain about a home being unsafe or unsanitary, you are still forced to work there for two more weeks or be fired (OSHA needs contacted) Very low pay and no chance for a raise Very short shifts and long driving distances Repeatedly have to remind management of availability when they call and they try to force you to work when you are not available Try to force people to work on holidays Common sense does not exist in this office
