Pros

The clients are the real pro , the connections you will make with others in the field , and the community outings that help the day go by .

Cons

Management , pay, hours capped at 60, constantly being threatened and written up as a group for the actions of others , damaged vehicles (one had no rear view mirror for 5 months and I was forced to drive the van still after notifying management in Princeton, issue went unresolved for months , PTO not paid out , 95% of the clients are behavioral at most of the day programs. This agency takes majority aggressive behavioral clients vs, medically needy clients but you will also be changing /toileting / transferring 4 - 5 clients a day , 3-4 times a day . Their firing procedures are also unethical . Even for minor things , You don’t get ant chances or a warning . You Simply get suspended, while they investigate and then they terminate you. Just feels like they don’t care for their employees at all . They are always firing people which makes the program short staffed , causing others to do several jobs that aren’t their own. They constant fire without having a replacement and it cause the staff that’s there to over compensate and do the formers person’s job. It’s

Pros

Working with the residents and some of the staff were awesome caring people.

Cons

Long hours, poor communication from upper management, favoritism, unprofessional upper management, terrible pay for the amount of responsibility you have, no real support from upper management, ridiculous amount of meetings which are the equivalent of upper management talking badly about others etc…
