Pros

Tracey Wojo was my first contact at The Stepping Stones Group (SSG). She fought hard to make certain I was employed. She was kind and very gracious to me. Tracy Anderson was my client representative at SSG. She is sweet and very attentive; she made sure all my needs were met. She constantly checked in with me. She encouraged me. She also was determined to transition me to full-time work as I expressed wanted more hours. Casey also supported my decision to become a substitute teacher. When you work for SSG, I suggest you request to work with Casey.

Cons

It's too bad The SSG doesn't have more job opportunities in my area.
