      Poor working conditions

      Business outlook

      Pros

      The children are the best part of job!

      Cons

      very poor pay, back stabbing, awful human resource department. The woman running the department is a rude, and ignorant person. No support from management, no support on the job. Unfair schedules, same people doing all the hard work, and caring for the hardest children. Same people have the easy kids, and schedule over and over.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      The staff that work in the programs, the ones that directly interact with the individuals served, have a tremendous job and do it well! Many of the support departments provide actual support to the programs

      Cons

      The "C-suite" is disconnected from the reality that is the work that is done by the staff in the programs. Decisions are made on a whim and change at breakneck speed, without consulting the people who those decisions affect. There is a serious lack of professionalism from those who are touted to be the "leaders" of the agency, belittling people, sizing people up, gossiping, and judging - none of those are qualities of a good leader

      Pros

      Teammates that you can laugh with at all the ridiculous decisions being made by poor excuses for managers at this place. Once they jump ship you have to as well to maintain your sanity.

      Cons

      -Unethical practices at times -Questionable choices on leadership team (i.e.-inappropriate behavior-dating subordinates) -Lack of licensed staff members -No raises or performance incentives -Constant turnover in staff -Zero communication between departments, stems from being a horribly managed company -Resources spread so thin that important things fall through the cracks
