Pros

Passionate staff, being able to have positive impact on lives of individuals in need.

Cons

Unreasonably high demands put on staff, exceptionally low pay, Expected to work over 40 hours per week. Non-unionized and discouraged from unionizing. Very disorganized, constant changing of rules and regulations, constant staff burnout and turnover. Very little support available for staff, little regard for staff safety Organization seems focused on quantity of care(productivity, billable hours) over the quality of care. Expectation is to complete 5 billable hours (productivity) per day. If you make 90% less than this quota at the end of the month you're put on probation, if you fall below 90% again within 6 months you are fired. I saw multiple staff let go because of this despite being excellent clinicians who cared deeply about the clients they serve. No support for licensure, no training opportunities, no CEU support. CEO, while very knowledgeable and a great practitioner, is remarkable out of touch regarding what the reality of community support entails.
