ProCare Therapy reviews

ProCare does not honor the contracts it signs, and does not protect employees from bad working conditions. I signed a contract to work for a particular district from mid-September to the end of the school year. I was told I would be filling in for one teacher while she was on leave, but instead, I was assigned to work at two schools, doing a job that had been filled the previous year by two teachers (a full time and a half time). In addition, while there were two half-time aides for this caseload last year, I was assigned one aide who worked with my students three hours a day. I did not have a room to work in, and sometimes had to go from room to room looking for a place to see my students. My assigned caseload was higher than the legal limit for resource specialists in California. It was an unworkable situation. I asked for help many times. When the kids didn't get their services and parents and teachers complained, I was terminated without explanation or a chance to defend myself. In short, the district was allowed to avoid blame by blaming me instead. ProCare never discussed this with me; the company simply started advertising for a replacement. The contract apparently is meant to bind the employee, but not the employer. I also haven't received pay stubs for my pay checks which were automatically deposited, or my W-2 form, even though it's February.

Working form home is a “privilege” and is taken away often based on how often a candidate starts a role. The metrics they use to measure success change almost weekly. There is no gratitude of “good enough”. Ever. And the only response you get it “Well, this is a Sales Role, and you knew that coming in to it. Gossip is rampant. The mental role it takes and the distraction it causes are nearly insurmountable. Leadership changes their stance often, and doesn’t stick to anything they do. Favoritism is rampant and there is a double standard for cis het white men, specifically. If you are black, a POC, a member of the LGBTQ, or even simply a woman, I cannot stress enough that this is not an environment you want to be in. Especially considering the current administration of this country.
