Pros

If you enjoy working with developmentally disabled adults (DDA), you will find this job rewarding at times. You help them grow every day, and get to share in their excitement of doing just that.

Cons

Poor support from direct supervisors. Have to find own coverage, even in emergency situations (other companies have staff sign up for on-call days). Possible nights away from home if working that shift. Higher-up supervisors will lie about you when terminating employment in order to make it seem like you violated some rule or law. Will slander against your character to other potential employers in the field.

Pros

I absolutely loved my time working at DCI. The supervisors have been amazing and supportive. They respected me a lot and allowed me to have a say in what goes on with the kids as well which has made me feel very respected. The actual children I’ve worked with have been just a delight. Obviously in this field there are challenges. But when I’ve been faced with challenges I felt like the administrative side has definitely stepped in and helped me out. If I ever have any questions or concerns they were very prompt to respond and help me out. DCI has the perfect balance of independence but also structure and support. I have worked at many developmental agencies and I feel like this one is absolutely my favorite that I’ve had the opportunity to work with and I’ve stayed with them a long time because of that. The owner is fabulous and listened to any concerns I’ve ever had.

Cons

Honestly I can’t think of any, in this field there is a high turnover rate but that’s expected at any developmental company.
