Worked here for 5 years, it started off amazing. Great culture, staff, flexibility even pay seemed worth the workload. Then it became a culture of nepotism, lack of accountability, no work life balance, no transperancy, from managment, no communication as a team, clients going underserved in many cases, aides getting the short end of the stick (knowingly), concerns were never addressed by direct managment, did I say nepotism? Between receiving verbal abuse from staff, getting barely the living wage rate increase annually but watching supervisors get big bonuses, it was clear after year 3 I'd be stuck. Creating an exit plan was necessary, most people are and if they just took the experience of the team more seriously and how that truly effected morale and performance they'd have a healthier team. The lack of diversity in office staff is also concerning, in 2022 your office staff should not consist of less than 30% minority but field staff make up over 75%.. that's concerning. It's also concerning when initiatives for support for George Floyd go un fulfilled, it just proves to be disingenuous and for lack of better terms a PR stunt.. Working here taught me one thing though, that I deserve better. There are teams that care about the betterment of the team, listen to you, care about what you have to say and take your concerns seriously. When you state your team needs more structure and compensation.. you won't be given blue jay tickets as a hush moment. You'll be heard and a collaboration between team and managment will begin. Im not telling anybody not to work there, go for it.. its a job, but consider your next 5 years and what you want out of it professionally before you do.

My experience as an employee, and a almost rehired on employee. I guess the best thing to say is ,this is a very needy field. I'm grateful to have the opportunity to do what I do best. And that is help ones in need. Taking time for others is a high demand in this field. it takes alot of time and patience to be able to work this field. It's not like someone in the hospital. They get the care , get better and go home.Then most likely never see them again. This is daily care, daily help, daily activities to help them be able to live at home. Family is suppose to help Venture Forthe with these needs also. See I've experienced family members not applying there end of help. It's not a day care of every day. The company can not be responsible for the irresponsible people that our country has. It takes a very genuine person to be able to handle this career. You either have it or you dont. So all they can do is go with what applies. I know criminals have turned there life around so everyone deserves chances. As in scheduling and office workers. If any of you only knew the amount of clients and families they have to fill needs for. No job no human being is perfect. Trying is half the battle in life in general. At least I can say they try. They may not make it at the end of the day of satisfaction to everyone but every minute they have they do there best. See all of you that have complained on here , it's your own personal unsatisfied ways that reflects a bad review. Place yourself in VF shoes and let me hear what you have to say then .... YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO HANDLE THAT OVER LOAD OBVIOUSLY. So on that note VF I'm very grateful to come aboard again. To be able to help you fulfill the needs we need to ;) for the ones in need. Have a beautiful weekend.

Let me start off by saying I loved the company at first as it has a lot of flexibility between hours. That was THE ONLY good thing about working here. There are cracks in the company that are turning into sink holes. The scheduling department DOES NOT CARE if you get stuck there for 24+ hours. They do not notify eachother of any changes. They say they have “emergency nurses” just in case someone is left at a shift for more than 16 hours BUT THEN THEY TELL US THEY CANT FIND ANY NURSES AND HAVE YOU STAY AT THE SHIFT TILL THEY CAN FIND ANOTHER PCA. This company is a joke. I had at least three pay stubs be completely off on about $100-$200 due to payroll forgetting to add in our increased pay we make for emergency shifts no one else can get to. This happens to a number of Other PCAs often. THIS COMPANY IS IN TURMOIL. There is absolutely no communication flow between the departments which leads to a lot of problems. A number of PCAs have got stuck at clients for 24 hours. if it was me getting stuck at a 24 hour they would be taken to court and hear from the department of labor with a big fat fine. DONT APPLY
