Pros

Lots of opportunity to deal directly with troubled youth and their families. Decent pay for the most part, great co-workers and dedicated staff.

Cons

Poor management- many of them have egomaniacal tendencies . Hard to get supplies or support at times. Only three call offs a year, plus a stay-over list that can be overwhelming if you have other obligations
