Cons
This company is ALL about the money. Services are billed at over $100/hour, but employees work 50-60 hours a week for a wage that is barely livable. I witness MANY employees being fired with no notice for their health concerns or even for having an interview with another company. You are sent to do home visits into terrible neighborhoods and dangerous situations with barely any training. Any children who live in nice neighborhoods are reserved for the supervisor's caseloads. The company violates DDSN and BabyNet guidelines left and right, and encourages staff to commit fraud.
It is painted as a flexible, work from home job. Most of my time was spent driving with pennies for reimbursement. Training was awful. I was left to the wolves. I felt unsafe in some environments. The bottom line was always meeting quota. Who cares if you have PTO? Meet those point requirements! Your kid is sick? Figure it out. Oh, and there are people who definitely work from home with their kids, but if you're not a favorite, you will be hearing from HR about it.
