Pros

Seeing the kids progress and enjoy their time with you. Benefits and pay. The parents show great appreciation.

Cons

Breaks are not offered every four hours. (some loophole in the law). Sudden changes at the last second causing chaos. Expectations of documentation are different weekly, only chance to hear such changes are through the grapevine. Rarely will you be told directly from upper management. Office is overworked. Communication is poor among office staff and technicians simply due to workload. No appreciation of work. Training is too short and not practical.

Pros

The mission of the organization is meaningful, and hiring managers genuinely value quality candidates and strong placements. The work can be rewarding when the focus is on making thoughtful hires that truly support vulnerable individuals. Team members care deeply about doing the right thing and producing strong, long-term results.

Cons

Under new management, recruiting has shifted to a numbers-driven model where metrics far outweigh quality, outcomes, and human impact. Recruiters are now responsible for interviewing and decision-making while simultaneously being held to significantly higher, rigid goals that do not account for location based candidate flow or program differences. Time is spent submitting phone screens and documenting nonviable candidates purely to satisfy metrics instead of actively sourcing strong applicants. Being discouraged from cherry-picking candidates, despite hiring for roles supporting vulnerable populations is concerning and demoralizing. This approach reduces efficiency, negatively impacts candidate experience, and has contributed to burnout and low morale. The system feels misaligned with the mission and set up for failure.
