This is to give customers an idea of who is interviewing and staffing those that help clients in home care, and how they treat those employees that are coming to you in the Southern Illinois area,out of the Marion office. I interviewed in November and completed necesssary onboarding. Interviewer quit before my onboarding finished. Training was done by Marcus and it was cut short on day to turn in time sheet for pay. At that time, Marcus informed me that training was not paid, nor time spent in adp app. Donna, another trainer for different group of applicants walked in and Marcus asked her to confirm that training is not paid, and Donna irritatingly said- Not one person has received paid training, nor are any of her applicants in her training room getting paid for being there. I inquired to the department of labor and informed to wait 2 weeks and if not paid, to reach out again. Marcus was made aware of my intentions to advocate for training pay. In the meantime, Shelly supported and advocated no paid training by chiming in a first introductory email to me mentioning the training scenario of me asking about pay as "confrontational". So silly. Ive been in/out of Addus office for 7 months and have not seen Shelly in the office once, nor has the person introduced theirself in person. I did end up getting paid by Addus. I then inquired of job status and mentioned that I hoped the office could see it as a benefit for future employees. But they chose to waste everything spent on background checks, fingerprinting, ect, to get rid of me instead. Marcus has advocated to bring down the education requirement for certain jobs- which, to me, points to hiring and keeping who they want. I would not use this business for myself or my family after knowing what their employees are going through in this area.

i’ve only worked at Addus since october but this is by far the most easiest and best job i’ve ever had! the pay rate is definitely worth it. i love helping my clients and being there & providing the companionship most of them want/need. Hayley Cobb is my supervisor (Williamson County). she is the ABSOLUTE best! she’s so understanding and will work with your schedule as much as she can.
