Christmas Dinner all employees and Management got together
Administrative Assistant (Former Employee), Chicago, IL – April 12, 2013
Answer Phones, Date entry. What I learned about this job was not to be shy. Co-workers and Management were also friendly and out going. The hardest part of my job was when we could not send out a Home care aid to a client and the most enjoyable part was payroll because you would get to see the happy faces.

Great place to work for, people are amazing
Administrative Assistant (Current Employee), Chicago, IL – June 28, 2012
Pros: reduce lunches
Cons: no parking
Start at 9:00 am, working with children between 5 and 18, makes my day go faster.
I learn how to separate the noise from my position in order to acomplish the daily task.
I learn how to enter data in two new Programs CDBG and ETO
Management at Casa Central are great with an open door policy makes it easy to reach them on any issues.
My co-workers are – more... exceptional, we comunicate in a friendly but yet profesional way
The hardest part of the job is telling a parent that they don't qualified for the service.
The most enjoyable part of my job is when the kids leave notes on my desk saying that they love me, and when parents come to talk to me about their life problems, I feel that I earn their trust.
I love my job. – less

This person oviously doesn't know that there's no program that serve children from 5 to 18 it's either 5-12 or 13-18. There's no reduces lunches and they were nasty!

Pepe – August 14, 2012

The separation between supervisors and employees in evident. The workers are in their own. Is the worse place I have ever work and all of the issues come from the top (president and Vice president) Worse place to work.

notfair12 – March 11, 2013

I totally agree. If you get hurt at Casa Central or someone hurt you, it is the employees fault, they never support their employees!
