Pros
I got to help others all day. Working with people with some of the same issues I have in my life was overwhelming in all the best ways. If you could fly under the radar, then you could have a long career of never getting promoted but continuing your labor of love.
Cons
Bullies, cliques, bullies within the cliques, everyone is having sex with everyone, if you're shy you are have an attitude problem, if you're tired you're high. Hypocritical. No matter how many GLOWING reviews my supervisor received from other program leaders or other organization directors about me, i messed up on a couple things and i was bullied out of there. I lost my best friend bc he let work become more important than a 4 year friendship. I tried my best. I loved it. I asked for support but was left to fend for myself.
