A great entry level opportunity

Pros

This job has some of the best benefits of any job you can get at an entry level position. Excellent vacation time, affordable health and dental benefits, and they even pay you to get your trainings done. If you are starting out in the mental health or disability field, it is a great place to get started working directly with clients. I have found the program directors and upper management to be very accessible and supportive. And the residential environment can be very comfortable to work in. I can honestly say the company really does care about the individuals they serve. They seem to do their best to support them as much as possible.

Cons

It seems not all the staff hired have experience with how to effectively deal with the population they work with. Probably because the company will hire without experience. This can be tough when you are a worker in a program and the people hired to work side by side with you are not useful to helping the clients. I don't feel there is not a ton of room for growth within the company. As a residential counselor, really the only place to go without further education is to become a program director.

Pros

Understanding, accommodating staff/teams; great work/life balance; decent training opportunities for managers

Cons

Horribly disorganized, inefficient senior management: leadership (rightfully) prioritizes client treatment but loses sight of management and organizational priorities, resulting in suboptimal services, working conditions, and client outcomes. Business acumen is lacking; "efficiency" is a dirty word. Attempts to be "understanding" prevents tough decisions from being made, leaving in place under performing staff, teams, and organizational structures. Hiring process is disorganized, initial training lacking. Overly decentralized but HQ bureaucracy prevents much implementation of "bottom-up" solutions.
