Pros
If you are absolutely desperate and about to become homeless, that might be a reason to try to work for Addus
Cons
Wages go missing regularly. When questions arise the person you are trying to reach is either "on vacation" or "sick". Messages are never returned. The office staff will send you to corporate, and corporate will send you right back to office or ignore you. Office staff is downright incompetent. They'll send you a paperwork submission schedule with deadlines, then change the schedule without notifying you and then delay your pay because "you were late submitting your paperwork". It's always the worker's fault. If your pay does not come it's always "our computer was down" and the ubiquitous "sorry for the inconvenience". This is a near-minimum wage job and people rely on being paid on time, but Addus doesn't care. They are absolutely unconcerned about when their worker gets paid, yet they demand strict adherence to their schedules, which they'll change without notice. They demand you attend "paid in-service" hours on weekends, but you will only receive minimum wage for those hours, not your rate and they do not pay for training at all. Overall, this company is ripping off the working people any way it can.
