Pros
Working with clients and most co-workers is an amazing experience.
Cons
Scheduling is a nightmare - At hire, I was told I would have to work one weekend day a month and provided an availability schedule. The reality is I worked every weekend one day a week and every other weekend all weekend. -Additionally schedules are rarely done the week before you are scheduled to work and then often changed. Communication is a one way street - I actually was told by another caregiver that my client was no longer needing care during my shift time and was never informed by office staff. When I asked office staff for clarification, none was given. As a single parent it was so discouraging: when I had the hours they needed they rushed me in to get started, once those hours weren't needed I couldn't pick up a different shift to save my life - even with a positive employee evaluation. I am so confused!
