Pros

Great supervisor, flexible hours, liked my clients, liked my co-workers

Cons

This job is extremely dangerous. They give you clients that are ridiculously far from your house, which means you will often be driving 3 to 4 hours a day just to meet 4 or 5 clients (the minimum allowed). You pay for your own gas, car maintenance, phone service, printer ink, etc. I've had to drive in extremely hazardous conditions to meet clients during a hurricane because they don't give you enough leave to afford to stay off the roads. You can also forget spending time with family, because you get NO paid holidays. The insurance is so expensive don't even bother. I also found myself spending hours of time at home on the phone with clients, parents, lawyers, probation officers, teachers, case workers, etc. for various reasons such as scheduling. You don't get paid for it! I made more money for less work at a non-profit. I've never worked so hard for so little.

Chrysalis Health Response

Thank you for your feedback Former Employee. I am sorry to read that you did not enjoy your experience working for Chrysalis Health. We pride ourself on providing a positive and supportive work environment and it sounds as though you were able to experience that. In some areas of Florida, such as Pasco there may be larger zones for clients, however they have been decreasing the size in an effort to continue making improvements. The travel and phone stipends are included in your service rate; however, Chrysalis Health provides all work supplies so I'm not sure why you mentioned printer ink, etc. I wish you well in your future endeavors and hope you found an employer that makes you happy and fits your needs better.

Pros

Not many anymore, basically soul sucking

Cons

I apply to jobs everyday and I encourage my team to do the same. Chrysalis Health has totally changed. The HR Department is completely toxic. The manner in which goals are placed on our team is toxic. The politics and favoritism is toxic.
