Pros

There is relatively frequent turnover so if you don't have a supportive supervisor, the likelihood is that you'll get one sooner or later. Recent cost-of-living pay increases show that upper management recognizes that us peopns at the bottom exist

Cons

The amount of clinical documentation required is ridiculous, encouraging clinicians to replace quality for quantity. Pay is so-so. Recent across-the-board pay hike is nice, considering it's the first time in 4 or 5 years. But when you see the kind of cars that upper management drive at this non-profit, it can be disheartening to those of us at the front lines of helping people. There's regular turnover so if you're in the wrong place at the wrong time you may have an inept manager/supervisor, or peers. The organization seems unwilling, like so many mental health agencies nowadays, and employers in general, to ignore the benefits that would be passed on to their customers if they valued their direct-service employees a bit more. Why upper management gets compensated so well and those providing the direct care are taken for granted is beyond me. But, the recent cost of living increase was something; at least they threw us that bone.

Pros

The people you meet are amazing.

Cons

If you are a good worker, there won't be a promotion for you, unless you are in the little circle of trust, even if you've never done anything wrong.

Pros

Being able to serve my community working for a human services agency. Very challenging part time job. Sometimes rewarding - being the local county human services officials wanted a forensic treatment team. As a community we tried to help my peers involved in both the behavorial health and criminal justices systems.

Cons

No room for full time work. Local supervisor was anal at micro managing all her departments. I deal with PTSD and while this agency states being trauma informed - they're aren't at all for it's employees. It got old fast hearing "maybe you're in the wrong profession." That was management's way of being trauma informed with me. Internal corporate culture is a joke. Always had to come into work on a day off for internal corporate trainings. Which were a waste of time...
