Pros

I was a recent college grad and this place hired me, but gave me absolutely no training, just threw me into the position. When I didn't know what to do, managers would berate me in front of other employees, so unprofessional. When they terminated me, the HR lady kept the door open and other employees came in and out of the office, how humiliating. This organization is in business to counsel and help others, but they treat their own employees like garbage. Being fired left me upset and really hit my self esteem, but then I realized they did me a favor by my being able to get away from this toxic workplace. These are the PROs of working here, because the Cons are much worse.

Cons

Don't work here, even if you are desperate

Pros

create you own schedule, good benefits, supervisors and directors support staff decisions well and trust them to do their jobs without hovering too much

Cons

the work itself can be challenging (at-risk youth are the clients), loads of paperwork to be completed daily, weekly, monthly

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.
