Pros
Can run the program however you want to run it, the kids makes the job interesting. Off summer(paid) and throughout the year. Good job if you don't like working with others or having a boss being over your shoulders 24/7. LCSW supervision after 2years
Cons
All about number of kids enrolled in program. Quality over quality. Unrealistic expectations that changes. Managing 80 and up kids is tough and can be hectic at times. No support from others since everyone is on their own. Thrown into the job with no guidance or tips. Only care about reaching the number of students and not so much what you do to them. Was told " if you meet/see a kid in hallway 2x a month, you are done giving services to that kid". Also the pay is okay, but needs to be better due to everything we have to do
