Pros

There are some really good people at this company; some that really want to make a difference in the community.

Cons

I've sat in a lot of executive meetings and all I ever hear are empty promises and a lot of fluff. Instead of making sound financial decisions the CEO would rather keep things the same. He has individuals working there that do not belong but for some reason are unable to remove them for whatever reason. I've even overheard him saying he "wishes they would just retire". They've lost a tremendous amount of talent due to this and I don't see the facility ever prospering.

Pros

- You get to help people in rough situations find safety and support

Cons

- The shelter advocate often works alone in the shelter and plays the following rolls: office admin, maid, data entry specialist, security guard, baby sitter, counselor, and 24-hour crisis hotline operator. All for $10 an hour.
