Pros

I love working here. The staff is great, and the CAREGivers are awesome. The people at my office really do love working with Seniors. It is NOT just a paycheck to myself or those I work with. I believe in the mission that we are carrying out. Our community here is great. People are outgoing, they enjoy their lives, well into there 90's. The weather here (Florida) is perfect for it. In today's economy, I am happy to see that the care for seniors is not being overlooked

Cons

I feel that the reviews have to be taken with a grain of salt. This is a franchise, and each office is run differently. I noticed a lot of complaints and all I can say is that if you don't care for hte office you are at, find someplace else to work. This is a growing industry, with offices popping up everywhere. What I love about our area is that the staff and caregivers have one common goal. To take care of people.

Pros

Matched clients with same interests

Cons

Not good scheduling manager HR lied When they said $1 per mile when transporting clients, they did NOT reimburse at that rate Payroll/paystubs unclear to intentionally confuse caregivers CarePros who have been loyal to the company have been shat on with lower wages than new-hire employees. They allow clients to be racially biased and hateful towards their caregivers NO BENEFITS and things they advertise are not true! No real flexible schedule that they promote and promise in the job ads NO policy written for things that are unclear for example being on call phones are not provided and time is not paid for unless actively providing cares Management will tell lies to the families about why you don't want to be with a certain client every day of every week and will blame it on them being a difficult client when communicating to the family when in reality schedules and availability with classes does not align. Even with proper notice, the scheduling manager will have attitude and try to convince you that you are the one with the problem even though she does not care to take the time to fully understand each persons preferences or availabilities.
