unsatisfactory management system

Home Support Worker (Current Employee) - Seven Oaks, MB - 10 July 2017

The job routine was good, you will meet different people with different nationalities. The management is not that good to their employees and there's no room for the employees for advancement.

Good place to work at

HOUSE SUPPORT WORKER (Current Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 9 March 2016

My typical day working as a house support work is interacting with clients, cleaning bathroom and kitchen, vacuuming, dusting, doing laundry. The most enjoyable part of it is visiting people who live alone and keeping them company, while doing my work. The hardest part of the job is when you've been working with a client for a long time and they pass away. Management isn't always the best at calling the workers to notify them about clients who have canceled or giving important information about a client.

Pros

Not always in the same place, Time flys by

Cons

Unorganized management, Don't always call you back, Don't give important information
