    Pros

    Good benefits, a lot of paid time off.

    Cons

    Low pay for hours put in. Training is horrible. You get re-embursed for mileage and out of pocket expenses but expect to wait a month so receive the money.

    Learning Opportunity

    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Co-workers are often very supportive and stick together. There are many chances for training opportunities. Not a lot of out of pocket expenses; it is easy to get reimbursed.

    Cons

    They do not support their employees as they say they do. Like most companies bringing in the almighty dollar is the most important thing to them, not the individuals served or their employees. Management is not supportive. Pay rate is not the greatest and often very little chance of raises. Communication on many levels is lacking.

    Okay-ish.

    Jan 18, 2021 - Direct Support Professional in Hebron, CT
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    You grow to care for the people you work for. All colleagues are kind and welcoming. The hiring staff is kind and welcoming. For tough work, you do have a support system to fall back on.

    Cons

    Though there is a lot of Paid Time Off (PTO), you wind up having to use it often. It's hard to save up. While the management is kind and empathetic, they need to be more proactive about the policies and procedures put in place. The pay also isn't great. There's a degree requirement for some of the houses and you still only end up making less than average.
