Business outlook
Pros
I truly felt like my fellow case managers supported each other and we really worked as a team. My manager (and all other superiors) was immensely supportive whenever I needed time to attend to personal manners and modeled good self-care, which is somehow rare in the world of community mental health. Benefits were great.
Cons
The pay is low, even if you have a Master's level education, which is unfortunately somewhat expected for this field. Caseload wasn't unmanageable (~20 clients for full time) but hard at times. Has all the same difficulties any CMH or county contracted agency would face, including a lot of documentation.
