Pros

Great work atmosphere, wonderful people to work with, had enough work to keep busy throughout the day, good vibes all around.

Cons

Management isn't clear, there is a ton of turn over in all departments, only two individuals to answer the referral line for the entire company

Pros

Great benefits, medical, dental, vacation/sick time, 401k, etc. The continued growth, employee lunches, clean office, free coffee and water.

Cons

High turnover, unwilling to keep good employees, pay is not parallel with the work and expectations. Letting certain people get away with a lot of crap only because they are friends with management. Hostile environment because the work is high volume and less than a third are even qualified to do the job. It reminded me of junior high, if they don't like you, you are outta there!

Pros

Schedule according to your daytime availability. Paid sick, vacation, holidays, and "show-up" time. Offer health insurance at 80% out of their pocket for FT employees = affordable. Paid miles between clients, paid time between clients, paid miles taking clients to appointments or running their errands.

Cons

High turn over in management means there is always someone on the low end of the learning curve, often getting it wrong. PT employees can't afford full health care coverage. Starting wage barely over minimum; raises are preset at 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 15 years at no more than 25 cents max per hour per jump. "Training" for office personnel is minimal which often leaves field employees doing their job for them in scheduling... Office personnel get to wear multiple hats, hiring, firing, write ups, maintaining lots of files and also going out into the field to do intakes on new or returning clients, and In-Home visits on all clients.... And that's just the Service Coordinators. Now everything that can be transferred to corporate in Chicago area has, making it a more confusing at the local level.
