Left company due to incorrect information given(promised reimbursement was not reimbursed properly via taxes nor reimbursed in full) and ungiven raise from the Governor to every person in same position(company kept $1.75+ of the $2.50/hour raise given to the specialized employees).
The positions necessitate use of your personal vehicle and you are promised reimbursement but you are not told that the reimbursement is capped. In this example, you have 1 or 2 clients and the entire point of your position is to take the clients to work or activities so you put about 100 miles/day on your vehicle. The capped reimbursement is $140. To put that into current gas prices/mileage cost, if you have a vehicle that gets 20 miles to the gallon then if you drive 100 miles a day for 20 days out of the month, that is 2,000 miles in the month. 2,000 miles in gas is about 100 gallons. Conservative gas prices are about $3.76/gallon right now. 100 gallons times 3.76 equals $376. If you are only reimbursed $140 that leaves $236 out of your pocket that you pay. Since you make about $300/week, that's almost an entire week of pay from each month that you pay to do your job.
The company kept the raise given by the Governor. The state of Tennessee's Personal Assistants for clients with Intellectual disabilities were all given a raise of $2.50/hour. The company gave less than a dollar raise (even with more than one client at a time) and kept the rest.
