      Pros

      Coworkers are attentive. Environment is really friendly and accommodating. Great place to work if you enjoy working with kids. Training is a big part of the learning process.

      Cons

      In the offer letter they claim to pay you the full rate, yet during drive time to patient’s homes they pay you like $13 for that hour of drive time. Training is extremely overwhelming. When you apply for this job it doesn’t say in the job description you get quizzes every day for 1 and a half week and if you don’t pass the exams, you will not be able to work at FirstSteps. They care a little more about the patients than their own employees.

      Underpaying Staff and Fake Promises which is leading to high turn over rates.

      Pros

      Supportive PD’s. Very flexible with hours. Training is great.

      Cons

      They claim to want you to “move up” with the company, however, directors are telling instructors that if the job can’t help pay the bills there are other opportunities out there. Their add claims “competitive rates” but they are actually severely underpaying staff. And I mean very underpaid, well bellow what the average pay is with other companies. Before, I felt like it was a good work life balance, but now it’s just them changing schedules last minute without consideration of our personal lives. Aside from the fact that there are a lot of fake promises to “promotions” and then suddenly revoking these and giving you excuses as to why they can no longer give you what they promised.
