Pros

The one and only reason to work in a residential is for the children.

Cons

Not feeling able to gain rapport because once you’re at a certain level, working in group or trying to have in fun with the kids is laughable. The hours. You came in at 7 am and no one is here to relieve you? Well guess you’re stuck until 11 pm now. Salary positions do not provide adequate pay for the demand of that job.

Pros

Work can be very rewarding. Hours are extremely flexible in the sense that you make your own schedule. coworkers are great to work with. This is a great place to gain experience for a future career elsewhere.

Cons

Supervision is lacking in the sense that you are more updating your supervisor on your case load rather then getting any real substance from the meeting. Where a supervisor may have dropped the ball on a responsibility the blame is often pushed onto those below them. Communication from upper management and supervisors to the worker bees is extremely lacking. There is no job training. You are thrown into the job with a manual and often asked to refer to your manual or ask colleges when needing assistance . This could be due to a lack of training of supervisors as well. Support from supervisors and upper management is lacking. No training on how to use car seats or proper baby/child transportation. Many individuals have never held a child prior to this job far yet installed a car seat.
