wonderful work environment
Direct Support Professional (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 4 April 2019
I learned a lot, received training, and formed a good networking circle.
Working with people with intellectual and physical disabilities was not only fulfilling, it was a wonderful experience. Learning that our Province has an accessibility by law opened my eyes to a lot.

Worst management I've ever dealt with
Dsp (Current Employee) - Portage la Prairie, MB - 25 July 2019
Portage la prairie visions of independence is by far the worst place to work for when it comes to how management will treat you. The management will lie even when proof is available. They cover up incidents regarding injuries to staff and so much more. They have even gone as far as accusing and trying to charge one employee with abuse just because they didnt like her.
Pros
Great benefits and ok pay.
Cons
Management

Rewarding careers with outstanding connections
Direct Support Professional (Former Employee) - Portage la Prairie, MB - 17 January 2019
My career with VOI began 7 years ago and within those 7 years I have made wonderful and supportive connections with management, coworkers, and the individuals recieving support.
In terms of the job, the impact you have on someone’s life is by far the greatest reward. Great work benefits.
Its not just a job, it’s a support network of people who care about you, and your wellbeing.
Great place to work.
Pros
Accommodating, supportive, rewarding career
Cons
Industry wages due to government cuts
