Pros

Good company, great mission statement, great CEO. The work that is done really helps the kids, families, and communities they serve.

Cons

The issue is that there are no salary increases, no bonuses, and very little room for vertical growth within the company. Promotion opportunities do not seem to be objectively based upon merit, or aptitude. Program growth and expansion can be limited to the vision, and drive of each local leader. This also means less opportunities for advancement for others.

The hours are flexible, as you can pretty much create your own. Seeing progress in children is great. Great job for new graduates.

The hours are not guaranteed, and the children and families can sometimes be difficult to work with. There can be a lot of down time

Pros

Can set your own schedule.

Cons

Pay rate is based on Billable and Non billable time. They only pay between $10 and $13 for non bill and write you up if it takes you longer to write progress notes, treatment plans, discharge summaries or any other paperwork, then what they think it should take. No benifits, no PTO
