Pros

Clients are great and the work can be rewarding.

Cons

The company is very slow to pay any vacation or mandatory training pay. Still waiting to be paid for training class I took over two months ago. Numerous requests to be paid have been ignored. Same for vacation taken in January. It took two months and numerous inquiries as to why I wasn’t paid to finally receive my pay.

Pros

Job security, hours, training, but that's pretty much all I can honestly say.

Cons

Some of the clients are very disrespectful, so is management, and they pay $9.00 an hour and they try to work you to death. They are cheap and they are liars!!!!

Thank you for your commitment to those we serve in your employment of over five years with us – that is so meaningful to the individuals in our programs, to see the same staff on a consistent basis. We are sorry to see you leave. We’d encourage you to provide more details to our Hotline – since you have left this review as Anonymous, we don’t know what state or Operating Group where you worked, and we’d like to address the concerns you’ve highlighted in your review. We advocate for increased payrates on an ongoing basis with the governmental and private funders for our services, but sadly, the Human Services field, as a whole, is undervalued. We know how critical a role our Direct Care employees play in providing the supports and services to individuals, and we will continue with our advocacy efforts as we are committed to helping improve payrates for our employees. We are disappointed to hear you think you’ve received anything but truthfulness in your interactions with us but without more detail it is difficult to try to properly respond to your comment. We can only reassure you that we take these reviews seriously, and that we strive to treat both those we serve and our employees with respect.

Client Care is horrible

Pros

The clients are the only pro. Beautiful people who deserve more than Mentor’s care.

Cons

The pay is ridiculous for the work. Responsible for what should be nursing duties. Lack of accurate reporting of client injuries and incidents. Behavior plans are a joke, outdated, and ineffective. Due to the pay rate the quality of employee is overall lackluster even though many have their heart in the right place. Paperwork such as fire drills and daily support records are often incomplete or flat out falsified. No breaks on often 12-16 hour shifts. Lack of adequate training on behavior plans and medical needs.

We're sorry you had this experience. We are deeply troubled by your review, and take matters such as this very seriously. Although you are no longer with us, we encourage you to contact the Compliance Hotline so we can investigate further. The number is located under the "What We Promise" tab. Thank you for all that you did for the people we are privileged to serve.
