Pros

None I can think of

Cons

Upper management does not care about employees at all. You are disposable and they make sure you know that. I was fired without a warning just four days after I was publicly praised by management in front of the entire region for doing great work and having a positive attitude. I was not given a reason for being let go. I began looking for a new job one month after I started because I was so unhappy. They only pretend to be transparent when they really are not at all. Work is an extremely toxic environment and there is barely one person I've met at the company who is completely happy with the job. The business model is basically a scam and they only PRETEND to care about their patients. Their motto is quality over quantity but the whole company is super metrics driven, even with the medical providers! They have numbers they have to meet and quotas to fill and they take those very seriously. the upper level management is just completely money driven and that's all. They don't see people, they see dollar signs. They are unprofessional and this is an all round a bad place to work. Please do not take this job unless you want to be unhappy from day 1.

Pros

Fairly good benefits given that the companies run by CVS, Nice, clean place to work with people who generally care about elderly and disabled individuals. $3000 tuition reimbursement per year.

Cons

Pay is very low for some positions, including mine. Juneteenth not recognized as a federal holiday. Hours are 8 AM - 5 PM, sometimes earlier and sometimes later, depending on when patients finish. Patients can be difficult to contact and deal with.
