Many of the clients (children) were awesome and developed close relationships with staff.

No organization. Very little support for staff. The school contained teachers that weren't passionate about their jobs and hardly taught. Cottage staff were overworked and under a lot of stress.

Co-workers, students are in need and it feels amazing when you make positive impacts

Pay is beyond low. Management is frequently playing staff against each other while they also push you to take on more hours and duties because they can't keep staff in the building.
