Pros

Staff and clients are amazing! The hours are amazing! You get to be outside and do different things everyday as a community integration specialist. Everyone is warm, caring, down to earth, and supportive. Great benefits including some tuition support, bike support, and wellness support. They value work-life balance. LGBT friendly. They provide two weeks of training. They adapt to your schedule. They pay the monthly clipper for full time community integration specialists.

Cons

Pay is low. Once comfortable it may feel routine with minimal learning and growth. You can move to other positions easily but they may be harder in not preferable ways with still low pay. They promote people with minimal experience sometimes and may take advantage of those who seem flexible.

Pros

This job is relatively easy when you are working with clients who have minimal behaviors, many clients are independant and just need minor monitoring. Very similar to baby sitting.

Cons

When the company is understaffed, be expected to take on more clients than usual, be prepared for messes in your car, possible car damage, and for clients who can be verbally abusive. The pay does not fit the job description.
