The environment of the facility I work at is the best. All of my coworkers get along like family and we are all there to support each other.

Cons

The job can be stressful, but that is just a part of the job. If you don't have patience it isn't meant for you.

Pros

PTO, 403b, working with the people-supported

Cons

Expected to be available 24/7, constantly covering shifts and doing med passes while also doing office work, staff and leadership are often covering high-behavior homes by themselves which is dangerous, director and upper leadership that are never around or willing to help. 60+ hour work weeks are normal, you may be expected to come in one day at 6 am and the next at midnight.
