Pros

Co-workers are supportive; opportunity to learn different aspects of service. Benefits, especially tuition reimbursement, are decent. No weekends for the most part.

Cons

Supervisors not consistently trained, so there is no "right way" to do a job. Penalized for using vacation time by having unrealistic productivity requirements. HR will write up staffers who speak out about unfair treatment ("poor attitude"), setting people up to be let go without getting their accrued vacation time paid out. If someone leaves with less than two weeks notice, they don't get PTO. Underhanded other treatment designed to keep people in line. Many unhappy long time employees, especially in support services. Mid and lower level employees are not treated as valued.

Pros

Strong workflow and structure: Day-to-day operations run smoothly, which allows me to focus on quality work rather than constant crisis management. Behind-the-scenes impact: I truly enjoy the analytical and administrative side of counseling. Reviewing reports, researching client data, and supporting treatment planning is fulfilling and allows me to contribute to client success in a different but important way. Team support and collaboration: I assist my team in managing client services and helping clients make informed, effective choices toward recovery. Welcoming work environment: Staff at CRC have been friendly and inclusive, and I’ve enjoyed building relationships with new coworkers. Private office space: Having my own office has been a major benefit and supports productivity and focus. Work-life balance tradeoff: While the hours are long, having a half day on Fridays helps balance the schedule.

Cons

High counselor-to-client ratio: Counselors are carrying very large caseloads, which contributes to burnout and makes it difficult for staff to prioritize their own mental health and wellness. Leadership transitions: Switching supervisors can be difficult. While transitions have been somewhat rocky, they have been manageable overall.
