Business outlook
Pros
Great "core training" program - a crash course in social work for those without a background in the field. Large organization with new programs opening consistently so there is an opportunity for growth. Good benefits (generous vacation, sick time; good insurance).
Cons
High turnover in the service coordinator role. Harm Reduction model is very challenging. Quality of management staff is inconsistent with little apparent accountability for middle managers. Upper management is focused on growth and diversity of programming and not always plugged into the issues of the core programs (supportive housing) and ways to make those programs work better.
