Business outlook
Pros
Flexibility of schedule Early-career experience with complex cases Several training opportunities Full benefits (coverage varies) Colleagues in WISe feel more like family/team than just coworkers PSLF available Regular experience collaborating with other agencies/departments
Cons
Extremely low salary offer Consistent expectation to take on more than required for no additional compensation Frequent turnover Dearth of community resources Clients are often challenging to work with due to stagnation, substance abuse, unwillingness to self-reflect, and belief that the child is the only one requiring assistance Frequently faced with ethical conundrums Little room for negotiation with management outside of WISe program
