Pros

• if you actually like to help people, then you might find it very rewarding actively helping inmates rehabilitate.

Cons

• too much politics. • administration has an addiction to micromanaging. • if you upset anyone, be prepared to hear rumors spread about you with the intention of getting you fired or investigated. • administration makes it hard for you to do your job. • no sick days, you have to use your pto for everything in regards to missing a day of work. • no overtime. • be prepared to be discouraged a lot. any idea you have will most likely be shut down. •you’re supposed to get a raise every year you’re there, they do not do that. • lots of favoritism. • policies are constantly changing. • they’ll ask you to be a team player a lot, you’ll be stuck working 3 different positions but questioned as to why your work is not done. • overall, it’s just too complicated, too political, too clique-y, and too stressful.

Pros

You're able to learn a lot about what the job offers. Always something new, which is good for the position.

Cons

A lot of the things that needed to be fixed were beyond your control, and working with corporates, sometimes you have to fight for what you want.
