Pros
Nothing. Possibly flexibility. You had to lie about where you were but you could do things and no one knew. As soon as you asked to do an 8am doctor appt you go in trouble though.
Cons
Being employed there. I worked 12 or more hours a day. I couldn't spend time with my family or I would get farther behind. As long as you were getting billable hours they didn't care. If you were handling a difficult case and got behind even though it was well documented what the issue was. They offered a lot of paid time off. Good luck using it. You are still responsible for all the billable hours you missed. Take 5 days off to go on vacation with your family? You'll be working unpaid overtime for the entire quarter to get that time off. They can also deny your vacation even last minute if you aren't where you are supposed to be. I had murders and sex offenders that I had to visit with in their homes regularly by myself. Turn on the news...those neighborhoods where the gun violence is.. you will be ALONE in those areas most of your time working. Insurance is horrible!! Pay is below average from what I've read on sources like glassdoor. You will tear up your car and if you get stuck in the community with a flat tire or something like that you will be forced to take PTO hours while it is getting fixed and no one comes to help you. There is no support from management. People have been fired for suggesting change although they would deny it. They also teach you how to commit welfare fraud and then threaten you with being fired but also push for you to do those things. Driving a client and billing insurance is not allowed. But as a care Manager you will be taught how to word it so that you can still do it. FRAUD. When capable people apply for SSA benefits you are not supposed to say anything that can keep them from getting it. Even if you know specifically that they can work and are doing under the table work. Also...if hired...you may not make it through the training. They let people go in training despite not telling them it was possible. Last thing. There is little to no opportunity for advancement in this agency. You have very little opportunity if you are licensed in social work. If you have any other degree you have 0 opportunity to advance or grow. I know this will not keep everyone from applying but if it helps save ONE other person from going through this madness it was well worth the time to write this.
