Pros

PTO; some colleagues abide by ethical codes, others are super burned out; snacks

Cons

I am very disappointed in this workplace, they talk a lot about quality trainings but it is so controlled and you don't actually have a say in what EBPs you get trained in. Very old school when it comes to Healthcare, the business model is harmful to clients and clinicians, thy push premature discharges so they can bill for intakes more frequently. A lot of shaming and talking smack from thr leadership about employees and other community organizations. Really unhealthy workplace culture.

Pros

Salary was decent. Good opportunities for training. Included supervision. Supportive co-workers. Excellent PTO. Good health care and retirement benefits.

Cons

Caseload consistently over 60 high acuity clients at a time. Management does not care about employees or clients. Management always seemed to find more to add to the workload, seemed like policies and expectations were constantly changing.

Pros

I loved my co-workers, I'm still in touch with most of them. The work you do here is so incredibly meaningful, I loved building relationships with my clients and caregivers and felt like I was truly making a difference in their lives. There is also a lot of training opportunities, I learned so much while I worked here.

Cons

The work was very hard and physically demanding when working with dysregulated clients. There are periods where you are often hit/bit/kicked by the littles. There were also lots of people who were upset with management, waves of people quit. There is lots of turn over and we were often very understaffed which led to a lot of burn out. I did not have healthy work/life balance, often would leave work tired and sick.
