Suggest Treatment For Spondylolisthesis

I have already been diagnosed wth spondylolisthesis a year ago and have put off surgery for a year. I took a job sitting down but the pain has worsened. my question is will the surgery actually help or is this a progressing thing. I have applied for disability but I am wondering will this be a disabling thing in the future?
