Pros
Direct care staff is wonderful, they have supervision for licensure, it is a great company to lean about mental illness and drug abuse disorders, and how clients with these problems can work in the community, benefits are pretty good, supervisors are really good at what they do, possible to move into supervisory position. Clients are respected
Cons
Line staff is not supported by management, there was a merger a few years ago and since that time a lot of really good staff have left the agency, it seems like some supervisors were forced out because of really small things, this may be why there is so much turnover and this may be the only way people can get into other positions,, really poor pay for direct care staff, it seems like supervisors do the job of managers and directors
