Pros
-Supportive colleagues -Compassionate connections to clients -Learn a lot about HIV and get experience in different medical settings
Cons
-The amount of work you are expected to do for the pay is NOT equal. -You will not see a raise even after a year of working here. No room for growth -All you have to know about this place is reflected by the turnover rate. Also, because of this you will need to cover the clients whose CMs have left, adding to an already heavy case load. -This organization does not care about the safety of its staff. Multiple times there have been threats on CMs safety and supervisors and the upper management did nothing to address this. -this becomes less of a medical case management job as you are made to do everything with the client, from housing to SSI. -Training is minimal. You are “oriented” over one zoom call for one day and then given clients and expected to figure it out. Trust me, if you want to work in this field there are places that have more money and appreciation for staff and resources for clients! Run… run fast.
