Pros
Partnerships with companies like Avery Brewing Company Fellow job coaches are awesome
Cons
1. MANAGEMENT IS CLUELESS, get people who will actually proactively help instead of covering their own tails and hiding behind the employee handbook. 2. Bait and switching jobs on people is appallingly immoral, unethical, and flat out poor business practices. Freshly out of college I applied for Job Coach, interviewed for job coach, signed paperwork to accept the title of job coach, only for the 2nd day of work to have my job changed to day program, which is glorified babysitting adults. Not what I signed up for, and when I complained the response I got was "Well we need help with day program, when we have more people hired we'll SEE if you can get moved back to job coach." Not my problem you didnt hire enough people, your lack of planning does not constitute you totally jerking me around. After they refused to put me back in the position I applied for, interviewed for, and signed paperwork for, I walked out and quit that same day. 3. You use your car, your cell phone plan, your data - they will pay you $25 a month towards your phone bill you're using your GPS and minutes for, except when you overdo your data, it costs more than $25 to pay off, so you're working for a loss already 5. 1 person per 5 adults, while driving, using your phone, and managing the car full of people. Not only is constantly texting/using your phone while driving illegal, if my child was under the care of Sample Supports, I'd be suing for endangerment. 6. Training is never close, starts at 8AM, when they aren't even ready then. If I have to drive an hour and a half to training only to sit around and watch videos I can access at home, you're already wasting people's time and they haven't even been in the field yet.
