Pros
- Great start for someone who wants to work in the mental health field - Supervision I had was great - I still keep in touch with them - Work with different clients from various backgrounds and functionality within the spectrum - Opportunities for in-home and community settings - Opportunities to learn how to advocate for yourself in difficult situations
Cons
- Never regionalized me, so I drove between three different counties (even when I asked multiple times) - If in a difficult situation, expect to stay there for the expense of the families - it will cost your sanity and burnout (could be up to 6 months before management does anything) - Company will push you to overwork you and it is difficult to acquire any vacation time - Quality of supportive environment quickly changed through the years causing high turn-over rates - They play favoritism, people that receive the opportunities are the ones that are liked - They change their policies every so often, you don't know what you're doing
