- Cannot access PTO for first six months. - PTO in the first year is pro-rated, and the first six months of work doesn't count towards this (more on that in "Advice" section below). - While work-life boundaries are encouraged by management, this is not always realistic; the workday can be unpredictable, resulting in long days. - As is the case with so many social work jobs, you need to be okay with constantly feeling behind on your work. - Not a lot of room to move up with only a Bachelor's degree. - Rarely any time for professional development. - High burnout/turnover rate because the work can become exhausting. - Pay rate is okay, but not great.
