Pros

The children is pretty much it.

Cons

Too many to list! Overworked and underpaid Supervisors, mandatory overtime, favoritism, this place is a sham! It has the right idea, but the wrong people are running it! This is a place designed to help children, and they could care less! This organization cares more about money than helping these children get the successful treatment they need! Too many incidents swept under the rug. its a horrible place to work especially when you have a passion to help kids! You are subjected to a lot of risks and paid very minimal for doing so!

Cons

Lots of travel. Inconsistent scheduling. Some days can be long. PM shift for the most part, so take advantage of your free time in the morning since you will likely be documenting late into the night. High emphasis on quantity over quality,
