I came to Work Skills after years of big corporate ABA work. I made the change because I wanted a job family/company that was focused on the clients and families rather than billable hours and numbers. Work Skills has proven to be student and family focused not only for their clients but for their staff. I quickly decided that this was my forever work family. I use the word family because that’s really what it feels like there. When I am sick, they check in, not to see when I am coming back but to see how I am doing. When I had a recent surgery, they sent a care package. 
The Clinical Services team (Speech & ABA Therapy) is an amazing group of individuals who work just as well individually and as a group. They truly care about the families, and it shines!
Lastly, ABA here is client centered, assent and consent based, and play focused. This isn’t your typical dull medical room at the table work all day ABA place. It brings a smile to my face daily to see how the staff and students thrive in this unique setting. 


Production: This place is a terrible place to work......The Vice President is a bad choice to run the business. She is rude to the workers and staff and she don't like her authority questioned. So yes you should be a yes person and feel at risk if you open your mouth....so yes just agree with her even if you know she is way off base or you will be terminated like I was. Many health hazards such as high noise levels from metal parts being sorted.  Fork lifts moving at high speeds that come close to hitting workers, The inside air quality is filled with exhaust and chemical fumes (from stripping engine brackets that workers are subjected to breath) so be careful with this place you may be let go without notice for no reason. If you are a hard worker and career minded person I would stay clear of this company.

Being a job coach is a very fulfilling experience.  Working with mentally and sometimes physically challenged adults to help them learn skills in a workplace environment is a new adventure every time you get a client. It can be repetitive and hard, but after building a comraderie with these special people, their successes give a great feeling of pride on both sides, I believe. So, that is the field work.  Back at the office,  you can use many sitting areas if you want to do paperwork in a quiet place.  There are many impromptu one on one meetings to discuss client's progression and deciding whether they're ready to maybe work independently.  As a coach,  I'd say they do most reporting and paperwork at home and come I to the office at their leisure  or for scheduled meetings.  I have learned to be more patient and  listen to peopl

On an afternoon shift there's usually one person to pass all meds cook dinner and attend to the residents in the house The in-house supervisors are cool most of the caregivers are good. Major major problem is lack of communication amongst supervisors and had a department. When you stir the pot they like to take all your overtime away they will make you feel like an unwanted employee but won't bother to fire you and try to force you to quit.
Mess with your paycheck a lot they like to short your money. And then give you a hard time about giving you your retro pay of what they shorted you.

In January of 2020 we had a new manager come on to take over for the outgoing one. This new manager managed to anger every long standing employee. Was terminated for a trivial matter while employees remain that continue to neglect the residents of the group home I worked at. The entire office staff are snakes as well. They will be warm and friendly at first to learn your weaknesses and then use them against you when you try to call off for being sick. 

While I loved most of the clients, it was the upper management that was awful. When I asked about "the chain of command ", management laughed at me, told me "we all scrub toilets".... but no one manages the business?!? It was utter chaos trying to work there. I have been a caregiver for elderly for approximately 15 years, and decided to change my direction to care for younger adults. I will be going back to elderly care. As an employee,  you have no back up/support from upper management.  Which affects the clients by not getting what they need in a timely matter.    :(

I am 100% happy I applied for this position when I did. When I got offered the position I started immediately. I started February 2022 only working part time. Now I am working full time with options to work full time whenever available which is all the time and they always ask before they schedule me for extra hours. My bosses are absolutely amazing and go above and beyond for the staff and our clients. I couldn't be happier with the company I work for. If I need help with gas to get to and from work because I live 45 minutes from my client they help out. I can't find that anywhere else. 

The best job I ever had…no two days are the same, everyday is fun with new and exciting challenges. Co-Workers are great, most everyone gets along and steps up to help each other as needed. The Management from the CEO down to the Production Managers are great, they are very caring and compassionate towards their employees…like one big, happy Family. So, if you are looking for a fun, laid-back, full or part-time job WSC is the place to be!!

Getting the line started so parts could be made striving for a good productive day. I learned how operate the line manually and electroncially it was certain things I could problem solve without calling maintance. Management was very out going didnt babysitt as long as you came to work everyday on time and did your job. The hardest part was getting threw the night I was on 3rd but I maintained  . What I enjoyed most was everyone was easy to get along with and didnt mind helping co-workers if it was something they didnt no. very drama free work place.
