Pros

Rewarding job. Great managers. Flexible schedule. Ability to work with different clients. Choose your own schedule. Only have to commit to a shift a few days before.

Cons

Poor compensation. Minimum hours of work potential are not guaranteed. Random schedule.

Pros

The best thing a person can get from working at Home Instead would be working with and helping the elderly. It is fun and rewarding work.

Cons

pay is extremely low for the work performed, company state that they are for the workers, but actions seems deceptive. No job stability there and high turn over rates.

Pros

Getting to know your client and knowing they are being taken care of correctly is awesome. Making your own schedule is pretty good, too. If you get lost getting to a client, call the office and they will help you out with directions while letting the client know you're on the way.

Cons

The pay is horrible. A 24 hour shift gets you paid $144. That means $6 per hour!!! Not only do you have to deal with constant calls about taking more shifts or other shifts being cancelled, but you have to remember you can say no. Being sent to a home with two clients and only getting paid for taking care of one is just not fair. This is non medical care, but you are basically doing CNA work with no certification and half the pay!
