Changed drastically over the last five years. Case Managers keep quitting, office personal turnover every year, company hires nonprofessionals to replace nurses without their knowledge of medical terminology etc.. No evaluations which means no raises! All other pedi. agencies pay higher.

One thing that bothers me about this company is the lack of Appreciation this company fails to give its hard working employees. they are more worried about a budget that their employees. I don't think they completely satisfy their motto when it comes to us. Some of their policies are wack and they always get the better end of the deal. As far as management, – more... they say they are on your side and sympathize with you but its all for show they can talk the talk but never walk the walk.
