Pros

you will learn complete and total professionalism working for res care. You will also learn how to be tolerant and total team work. Res Care will promote from within so you have room to grow.

Cons

Res Care is the largest residential facility in the country so why they only pay the minimum and refuse to increase wages to ten per hour i will never understand. I also feel that fairness is not equal throughout the company, so its not what you know or if you do your job. Its who you know. You get away with wrong doing if you know someone in management. But if you dont and you do something wrong, you are termed.

Overworked. Underpaid.

Home supervisor

Business Outlook

Pros

Working with the clients can be very rewarding. It's incredibly easy to get attached.

Cons

The company makes its money on the backs of the home supervisors. Home Supervisors work as salary employees trying to cover shifts for a number of homes without an adequate number of staff. Although it is said that you can't work 24 hours a day, there is no other way around it sometimes. Home supervisors wear out and turn over faster than direct care staff. There is never a moment of silence, your pager (yes pager) goes off all hours of the day and night and every holiday. ResCare doesn't even pay for toward your cell phone bill when they are the reason you have one and must have unlimited minutes to keep up with the constant call offs and emergencies.
