Pros

Good training and experience with mental health clients. Experience in Medi-Cal charting/billing requirements.

Cons

Not a lot of counseling going on. Expect to clean toilets and cook. Yes, you will be a janitor and it won't be pretty - pizza crusts, menstrual blood, urine, feces, vomit, the whole nine yards. Bring your Hazmat suit.

Pros

Great access to a rich diversity of client population with challenging psychiatric conditions. Excellent environment to polish your individual and group counseling skills You will not find any other settings where you can do so many diverse groups with clients this will allow you to develop awesome counseling skills. Great staff satisfaction If you love counseling, and has a passion for counseling, you will love this job.

Cons

If you are pursuing a License, you will need to secure and pay yourself for Supervision services towards your licensure. The pay is not the most attractive factors of this job.

Pros

Great Management. Many learning opportunities. Making a difference to those most in need in the community. Great low-cost benefits (unless you have dependents). Really nice paid vacation, sick, and holiday. Management listens to employees and seeks feedback, then uses feedback to improve. Employees are, for the most part, made to feel comfortable making mistakes and are helped to learn from them.

Cons

Underpaid, household tasks can seem mundane. A lack of training can make new-hires feel very uncomfortable and contribute to mistakes. Burn-out and turn over can be high. You are working with difficult populations.
