Pros

Addus provides the opportunity to pick my own hours to work, which in turn allows me to still be a full-time Mom!

Cons

A down side to working this type of job is that working w/ the elderly, you never know from day to day if they will be in the hospital or other facility for an undetermined length of time or even pass away suddenly. Not only is it a difficult thing to watch, it can be very bad for the paycheck.

Pros

The company is mission-driven and focused on supporting vulnerable populations, which gives the work meaning and purpose. It offers stability in a high-demand field and emphasizes training and re-education to support employee growth and retention. Branches are given flexibility to adapt processes locally, and many team members demonstrate strong compassion, teamwork, and commitment to clients.

Cons

There can be a disconnect between corporate policy and frontline realities, with inconsistent enforcement that increases strain on branch staff. A heavy reliance on repeated re-education can weaken accountability and affect morale, while centralized decision-making limits the value of branch-level expertise. Broad role expectations and limited advancement pathways can contribute to burnout for high-performing employees.
