Pros

Not a single positive from this job.

Cons

Awful training!! No one training knew what was happening or when.. Chaotic coworks lives going on live on screen during training and work. Must ask like youre two for a bathroom break.. required to be on screen camera at all times.. my guess is, due to a few (more like a lot) bad seeds... taking advantage and disapearing for extended periods of time. Very last minute (day before, after we had asked for 2 weeks and they werent sure) we were all told we were required to work a government holiday. RUN!

Pros

Provide unemployment and employment benefits/services for claimants and their families.

Cons

Employee privacy and safety not considered significant per IDES. Employee name, salary, work phone number, and work location is provided for public knowledge which is bad for anyone working for IDES in the event a claimant or any other person(s) of mal-intent is looking for someone in particular that works for IDES to either harass or physically threaten/attack. An investigation should be conducted to see if there are violations of any federal privacy acts/statutes. Medical and dental benefits are substandard. It's all about who you know, your ability and willingness to "play-the-game" and how well you brown-nose in order to get the six-figure pay to do absolutely nothing but be puppet for the legislators in Springfield, IL.
