Vantaggi
Community Work helping Vulnerable people - clients and families usually family - I had a trial beforehand to see if it was a good fit Being out in community - meaning a huge contrast to previous 'desk bound jobs' I had. Get trained while working (and getting certifications while at it) - although the inperson training is much better than online / self-paced training. Can be a dynamic role (experience new things especially compared to a boring desk-job)
Svantaggi
Feel Like I Can Be Replaced Easily (only 2 weeks termination in contract) Very Low Pay - you'll be struggling financially - good if you have 'support network' - could be a good part time gig, while having something else? Can be exposed to challenging behaviors (though that really is part of the job) Funding structure - meaning I Feel Like My Job is never that safe High turnovers - this includes managers and support workers
