Pros

At least all of my coworkers were also miserable. Made it easier to commiserate.

Cons

The Anderson office specifically makes it their mission to hire recent college graduates who have no experience so that they can take advantage & manipulate them. The senior management includes power hungry authority figures who emotionally abuses their subordinates on a daily basis. The office is powered on a sense of fear. Myself (and many of my colleagues) would try to arrange our schedules so that we were out of their line of fire as much as possible. Foster parents were licensed without any limitations. Can’t afford to pay your utilities? No problem, they’ll license you immediately, fill your house with high level cases, then force their workers to transport to appointments & visitations at all times throughout the week. Not mentally stable enough to be taking foster children in? No worries, they’ll be sure to exclude that information from your paperwork & then have their workers lie to state employees when problems arise. You will face serious ethical dilemmas working in this office. I can’t even count how many times I was told to “keep my mouth shut” about serious issues. We were constantly told that we should never let corporate know about what was going on with our cases, or we would all be fired. But when concerns eventually were reported to higher-ups, nothing was done because of the high level of homes that are licensed annually.

Pros

Rewarding work. Easy work. Great management team. Incredible opportunity to promote. Put in your work and you will be extremely satisfied.

Cons

Foster care is not for the faint of heart. Recruiting is a bit of a hassle and an antiquated method for advertisement. You lose an entire day when placing yard signs.
