Overtime opportunities, learn a lot of patience, sometimes get to do cool stuff with the people you support, there are people at the office who genuinely care and are awesome
Cons
No accountability is ever taken, literal criminals get hired to work with kids, favoritism galore, shame you lots if you need to call out, extremely stressful, you get beat up sometimes, you will not get paid enough for the stuff you will have to encounter

The coworkers and manager were very supportive. I really enjoyed making the people we supported laugh and have good memories whenever I could.
Cons
Excessive state documentation prevented outings, extremely short staffed. Sometimes very stressful; this job is not for the faint of heart, I wouldn't recommend working here, particularly 112th house if you have histories of physical/mental trauma.
