Pros

I enjoyed working with the residents and seeing them successfully complete the program. The pay wasn't horrible but could have been better especially for the kind of work being done.

Cons

There is zero work/life balance and no understanding when life happens outside of work. It's every person for themself and hardly any teamwork.
