Pros
-benefits -population experience for entry level -pay is sufficient (if you’re single)
Cons
-Evaluations are meaningless - unionized organization which should tell you management is incapable of running an agency without outside mediation and consultation to protect staff from overuse and basic human empathy. - flexibility does not exist. “Not your average 9-5” means you need to work when families are available not with a schedule that works for you - possibility for growth is slim to none. 3 promotions over 3 years with a 2 yr gap - growth is dependent on submissiveness and favoritism -turnover rate is absurd - Upper management lacks empathy and are dehumanized to the lives of their workers - Magnum PI couldn’t figure out the way they operate - lack of effective communication is an understatement - there is a large divide within the agency, lack of morale -no real solutions just committees as a bandage to appear that they care (ignored concerns and dismissive solution from anyone but upper management) - HR DEPARTMENT IS NON EXISTENCE - which causes a lot of “missed paperwork” and “dropped insurances” - unrealistic caseload 20-23 - consent change in operations and policies (which no one is on the same page) - lack of CEU opportunities being offered and promoted to staff - No clinical hours are available - Mediocre trainings for new hires - for a social work agency - they lack the core values of social work
