Pros

You can work as many hours as you want. Unlimited overtime. Really rewarding work if you put your heart into it. These are incredible people you get a chance to help.

Cons

The kind of work you will be doing as a DSP varies considerably between residential sites. Some individuals may need a large amount of support (meal prep, hygiene, etc) and some may just need transportation, but the pay is the same Because the agency (and the human services field in general) is understaffed, there is a large amount of pressure to work overtime. In my time there, I often felt I was judged as an employee not on the quality of my work but on the number of hours I picked up.
