Pros

Community work where you help the most in need Flexible schedule(depending on who you’d boss is :/ ) Non profit so it qualifies for some loan repayment options and such. Experience with lots of different types of mentally I’ll people from homeless, to veterans, substance use, severe metal illness, inpatient, 5150. You name it, you can gain experience in that clientele if you want.

Cons

Understaffed ….. like drastically understaffed. Constant turnover People leaving for jobs paying TWICE what we get paid :/ People are crabby because we aren’t paid enough and are asked to do the work of 3 people.

Pros

Most coworkers are great and the work is satisfying and rewarding. Healthy work life balance. Easy to take time off.

Cons

-pay is not super competitive and caps out pretty quickly leaving you with no room for growth -promotional opportunities are somewhat rare - some management is unprofessional and seems untrained and frequently engages in behaviors that are sometimes just annoying and sometimes borderline unethical (caustic verbal interactions with staff, sarcastic answers to genuine questions, belittling and insulting staff, micromanagement, at one point upset that staff talked about their pay, etc).
