Personal Assistant - Personal Assistant Alternative Community Training Employee Review

The most enjoyable part of working for this company is being a part of an organization that does so much good for the community. It's very rewarding. ACT truly cares about the individuals they serve. It's a place where you can start a career that's not in the retail or restaurant industry, which seem to be the most plentiful industries in this college town. The pay has recently increased, with a dollar raise for every single employee. They offer health, dental, and vision insurance, retirement savings, paid vacation and time off, and more. I am thankful to work with such wonderful people and have the opportunity to be involved in the lives of people with developmental disabilities.

If you want to get ahead and get promoted, you'll need to take responsibility for your own advancement. Participate in some committees, stay on top of your training, and get along with your coworkers. You won't get bumped up just because you've been around the longest.

Easy to get hired Good benefits for full time employees Some departments are great to work in - community living, career services and personal assistant/in home

Management disorganized, distant and lacking compassion No pay raises - at all Extremely limited opportunities for advancement
