Burnt out

Pros

Flexible schedule, pay check was on time. Some decent trainings and CEUs provided. Some coworkers were great and made lifelong friends.

Cons

Industry and national pay is below average, new graduates in my job where making more than me. Worried coworkers would comment that I was doing the job of 2-3 people yet nothing was done about it...causing me to be burned out and being pulled in all directions with the growth of the program. They'll just keep adding work...and if you speak up you'll be accused of "not doing whatever it takes." You'll be micromanaged yet management doesn't know what's going on. There was no room to grow within the company, you'll be stuck in your entry level position doing the work made for multiple people and other programs will take advantage of your hardwork and try to get you to do work for them. Abuse from families and clients is tolerated. No clear discussion or explanation of what my role was...seemed like supervisor wanted me to be everything from administrative assistant, a free therapist for clients to call all the way to a service coordinator.

Pros

Working with at-risk youth, building rapport, great people to work with and for.

Cons

Pay was not enough for the types of crisis and responsibilities at times, especially physically restraining when necessary and supervising and handing out medication, the pay wasn’t enough for the responsibility. It’s a rewarding job but the staff deserve better pay.

Pros

The pros to this company are the flexibility in the schedule and the benefits.

Cons

Communication is awful amongst programs. employers and employees and the opportunity for advancement is minimal. The pay is HORRIBLE considering what the job descriptions are and the amount and effort of time you put into your position. The HR department is not supportive of the employees needs. there is no opportunity for buy-back for benefits- the benefits are VERY expensive through Pressley Ridge. There is a program that employees can put money into for disasters and needs of the families that pressley ridge benefits but in the event of a fire, emergency need of an employee- they can not access this money for assistance of their own families.
