Former Employee – worked at Visiting Angels part-time for less than a year
Pros – sounds like the employees like working with and taking care of people
Cons – Can't believe they pay their employees so poorly! $5-$7.50 hr for being responsible for an ill person and spending sometimes 24 hrs with someone and getting no overtime pay or compensation? Poor communication! they management sounds like they don't care about the employees and aren't willing to make them want to make this a career. with reviews like I've been reading, I would never work for this company and not sure I would engage them to take care of my invalid dad.
Advice to Senior Management – Listen to your employees, take their suggestions to heart. Happy employees make good employees! Work with them, pay them better. Curious as to why your employees won't go to someone's home if there is a family member there?

Current Employee – been working at Visiting Angels for more than 3 years
Pros – Getting to know clients and families was priceless. Relationships were built and it was nice to know I was making a difference in the lives of our elders.
Cons – The pay was terrible. There were no bonuses or benefits. After years of service I didn't have any steady work. I was being assigned clients that were far away and there were times I barely made my gas money back. I worked overnight shifts from time to time and was not compensated well for that time. The excuse for this is that "we don't get paid to sleep" This is so wrong because during overnight shifts, one doesn't sleep for fear of the client's well-being.

Former Employee – worked at Visiting Angels
Pros – Visiting angels seemed like a great place of employment at first. He was nice, then I learned it was a front.
Cons – They don't care about your health, I had to stay at work with a b/p of 170/109.
The job doesn't have any benefits.
You are being under paid!!! ($90 for 12hrs) or ($120 for 24 hrs)!!
You will never have a descent check, unless u work 11hrs or alot of 24 hr shifts.
Your check will be shortened, and you will not receive a phone call or explanation why!!!!
Advice to Senior Management – Learn how to treat employees!!
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
