Pros

Job security. Well funded stable non-profit.

Cons

The organization chiefly concerns itself with making money - lots of money! It is a well oiled machine in this regard. Management is not client-centered in the least. They say they are but do not walk the talk. Additionally, most of the patients are heavily drugged making counseling difficult and ineffective as they cannot participate. It amounts to babysitting and milking government benefit and insurance programs for all they can get. Many patients have been there for years with little to no improvement. Go figure.

Pros

DePaul is a non profit organization and I have worked with them since 2019, but only started my current position in 2023. My colleagues all genuinely care about each other and the work they do, and management is very understanding when difficulties arise.

Cons

The only con I myself am experiencing is my commute time. I live about 2 hours away from my property, and even though I only have to physically go in once a week, it does still take a toll.
