Pros

The weekly pay and flexibility of shifts is a good reason to work here.

Cons

You don't get over 40 hours a week because they don't want you to get overtime however they do want you to work long 12-15 hours a day shifts. Hourly pay is extremely low. If you have a life they will try and cut what little 40 hours you do have and try to make it look like its difficult for them to make your schedule around your life. If u decline wanting to work with a certain client they will act like theres no other clients and cut your hours. Office employees put good workers on the back burner and have favoritism over whoever they admire. management also give new hires more hours than current employees. They promise raises at time of hire but get amnesia whenever your raise review comes up. Management also lies on staff. If families request you to sit with there loved one management won't even let you know and they will be sure to schedule you around clients who like you the most. Management looks for reason to fire you and get mad when they can't find a reason to. Management is intimidated by workers who already have leadership skills and they try to place you in a box to make sure you don't get ahead of them.

Pros

My experience with Visiting Angels has been very good. The work is very fulfilling and there is a strong sense of community within this organization. We problem solve together and management is very supportive and helpful.

Cons

I have had a very positive experience here. I have worked in the home care industry within a few companies for a very long time and it’s hard work sometimes. What sets Visiting Angels apart is the commitment to its staff, clients and community. This has been especially evident during times of challenge within the industry as a whole such as Covid or unexpected weather events.

Pros

Fairly flexible schedule, not much micromanaging.

Cons

Pay keeps changing and not for the better. I started out as salary, then it changed to per visit, plus a small per hour wage. Now, with the latest change, you don't get the per hour unless you have at least 3 visits a day. seems easy right? nope. Clients cancel the visit for whatever reason, or caregivers call in sick and you cannot do a visit unless the CG is there. It is difficult to get another client to agree to a last minute visit. We have lost clients or clients have had their hours for CG's cut due to government cuts to the VA. This makes having enough clients to see in order to make your weekly quota difficult. Insurance is very expensive and they encourage you to find your own outside of the company. PTO is earned at less than 3 hours a week. No sick time. You spend many nights per week making your schedule and then redoing it when a client cancels or a caregiver calls in. This is all non paid time.
