Pros

They have a lot of money from various grants right now, so there are plenty of opportunities and you can get experience doing many different things. Some supervisors are incredible.

Cons

People in the Prevention division keep leaving, and the reason is obvious: upper management micromanages and refuses to listen to any constructive criticism, and instead actively punishes people who share their concerns about how things are run. There is a reason that there are dozens of job openings, especially in the Prevention division. You will be paid poorly and "asked" to do many extra responsibilities that are not in your job description. If you voice your concerns, at best you will be ignored; at worst you will be judged and upper management will make your remaining time miserable.

Pros

Management is minimal, so no "helicopter" bosses. It is a very self-managed role! You will learn to prioritize your own tasks and will get comfortable advocating for yourself as an employee.

Cons

The staff turnover rate in this department is extremely high. There is flexibility when it comes to sick and vacation time but not when it comes to working from home. Client interaction and directing incoming calls for the entire agency is the number one priority for this role, which may impact your ability to complete other required tasks. The pay is entry level, and there are very few opportunities for advancement within the department. Supervisors often seem to just be "checking boxes".
