Pros

I liked the flexibility of the position and working with children. You really have a chance to make an impact on children and their parents. My position was the DCFS side of Addus, NOT the healthcare side.

Cons

Not good if you don't like to drive.

Pros

The company is mission-driven and focused on supporting vulnerable populations, which gives the work meaning and purpose. It offers stability in a high-demand field and emphasizes training and re-education to support employee growth and retention. Branches are given flexibility to adapt processes locally, and many team members demonstrate strong compassion, teamwork, and commitment to clients.

Cons

There can be a disconnect between corporate policy and frontline realities, with inconsistent enforcement that increases strain on branch staff. A heavy reliance on repeated re-education can weaken accountability and affect morale, while centralized decision-making limits the value of branch-level expertise. Broad role expectations and limited advancement pathways can contribute to burnout for high-performing employees.
