Pros

There are no pros to this organization. I kept this job so that I could become licensed and that was all.

Cons

Where do I start? Horrible management team. They hire managers and supervisors to supervise therapist while they couldn't even handle being a therapist. They expect you to work 60 - 70 hours a week and be okay with that. No communication whatsoever from management team. When trying to communicate with them they ignore their emails and text messages.

Pros

I enjoyed working with the vulnerable populations. I worked with a lot of awesome people.

Cons

Pretty much everything. The CEO, Vince, is completely unstable. He has either fired or persecuted-into-quitting, every leadership person in STL residential. There are now literally no managers between him and the front-line supervisors (no managers, directors, or VPs). Vince is trying to run everything himself. They even refused to hospitalize a kid who needed to be there, because Vince didn't want to pay overtime for a staff to sit in the ER. He also admitted a kid with cancer to a completely unstable cottage, because he personally felt we should help that kid, even though it is dangerous.

Pros

If you like to work with children who REALLY need you, this is the place to work.

Cons

No teacher contracts. If you do ANYTHING wrong they fire you. Excellent teachers, paraprofessionals, and staff have been fired for very miniscule things. Staff is put into dangerous situations in which they could get hurt.
