Pros
Some great, very dedicated co-workers. Decent benefits.
Cons
Short staffing is a constant problem that management ignores and leaves staff to deal with the results. This results in staff being left alone on the floor with dangerous mental patients and or without adequate staff to manage assaultive patients. Management constantly micromanages and nit picks staff's every move while hiring unqualified friends and relatives to work as Mental Health Aides. Pay is low for the level of skill and danger involved in the job. Staff only get paid once a month, recent employee strike, sometimes paid late.
