They have extremely poor communication, compounded by a refusal to use email with those employees who have it. You will get several paper memos with each paycheck. Pay starts at minimum wage. Recording hours worked is complicated and time consuming. Sometimes employees are put in the position of going outside the plan of care in order to properly care for the client.

No mention during the interview/ orientation of cost to me for training class and that it was required. Three days to attend the class and no pay. Lousy hours and the gas used for distance travelled ate up half my pay. I was told if I had great availability I could get 40 to 50 hours a week. I ended up working 7 days a week for a month and half but only average 20 hours a week. After I found a full-time on my own with a senior couple, I was required to pay the company the $250 cost for training class even though they didnt give me the employment promised. They also asked me to shredd all my informational papers from class which I paid for. After doing a background check on me, they had the gall to ask me to send them a money order or cerfified check to pay for this training class. I was trustworthy to enter their client's home but they couldnt trust me that I wouldnt send them a bounced check.
