Pros
Build great relationships with clients and making a impact in clients lives.
Cons
Management doesn't know what they're doing. Youth specialist often bring up issues that are going on with the clients, only for it to be ignored. Staff have been verbally, physically, sexually, and emotionally abused many times and management did nothing. It wasn't until management began to feel the disrespect that they decided to "make and change" and determine that certain clients were not fit for the program. Management often pretends to be concerned with issues and start "planning" to fix them then once the fire has died down, management will once again ignore the issue. Even though the youth specialists had been telling them this information for a whole year! If you tell management something about the clients, you will get ignored but if one of the clients make an accusation about you, you will be fired, (even if the client is known for making up lies)
