Vantaggi

Over 55 individuals finding it difficult to 'crack' their local employment market -- and sense the reason is their age -- may register with Experience Works for trainee positions requiring minimal skill levels with local non-profit agencies. Pay: $7.50. Hours: 14-21 on average a week

Svantaggi

Employment Works puts you on a payroll as a "trainee". No matter where you are or what you do, you are a "trainee". You will be stocking shelves, cleaning cages at animal shelters, receptionist work, serving up lunches at an elementary school. Not rocket science! Even if you are a senior rocket scientist -- you may be hauling lettuce boxes at the local food bank. If look past a bi-monthly paycheck which might just cover gas and food for the time you spent working to earn it, then ... go for it!

Vantaggi

The SCSEP was created to help older workers to develop Job skills. Older workers love the program for the most part.

Svantaggi

Upper Management is not transparent. They will hire new people making upwards of 100k while simultaneously laying off and furlough seasoned staff. DOL need to cut all of the benefits to Experience Works to give the money to a real program with proven results like AARP. The era of 2014 and 2015 was the only time EW was performing 6 of 6 performance measures while being ran by the 'corrupt leadership' The new CEO and Chairman of the board came into EW last July with OIG and members of DOL thinking it was a large scale embezzlement operation going on within the realms of upper management when in fact it was just a lot of misguided over spending on the participant portion of the program. That in turn made the finance department have to work long hard hours while being unappreciated and yelled at. Because of the actions of the new CEO and chairman of the board EW budget was slashed dramatically as it should have been since they clearly can not run a high performing organization. Do not work for this organization if you want a long standing, quality position.
