Pros
Short Work Week, could be a great job for students as long as you dont get stuck at work.
Kontras
As compared to other human services organizations, InVision accepts individuals who are the worst of the worst. Most of the individuals are extremely violent and will attack and injure staff. Individiuals will exibit extreme psychological behaviors while you are stuck working for 56 hours or more alone with them with no support at all. The supervisors will expect you to stay and finish your block shift with them even after an individual has attacked you. You have to use your own funds and personal vehical to take the individual on outings and wait forever to get reimbursed. You do not get paid at all for staying overnight at the individuals home when they are sleeping. Houses are very filthy and staff that work other blocks do not bother to keep it clean and tidy. Supervisors are overworked and do not care to respond to concerns that you may have. Due to the extreme behaviors of the individuals Invision has a high turn over rate and is often short staffed so you will often get pulled to work with a potentially violent aggressive individual who you have never shadowed and been trained to work with before. You could get stuck at work if no one shows up to relieve you and you can not leave because you will get reported to HCCIS for neglect. The supervisors will not relieve you even if you have other obligations that you have to tend to after you are scheduled to get off from work.
