Pros

Compassionate, caring and supportive colleagues. Front Line Staff care about the individuals who are receiving services. The participants strengths, abilities and interests are considered when staff are developing programs.

Cons

Management has changed over the past few years, resulting in favoritism in promotions. Therefore, managers are promoted with little experience in certain services, for example people with experience in day habilitation, residential habilitation and employment services are promoted in a department that he or she has no experience in.
