You are not valued
Hired externally as a Team Leader but treated as an outsider by leadership; reminded of being the first external hire despite the title, felt undervalued day to day.
thumb_up Pros
- Welcoming office staff
thumb_down Cons
- Bias against externally hired staff
- Felt undervalued by leadership
Use as a stepping stone
Get your experience and go. Rewarding work empowering residents day to day, but burnout sets in and you rarely feel appreciated.
thumb_up Pros

- Builds valuable experience
thumb_down Cons

Honest opinion from a current employee
Great stepping stone but turnover is horrible. Pay is significantly lower than competitors despite requiring a degree. Burnout typically hits around 6 months; management can be catty.
thumb_up Pros
- Good stepping-stone experience
thumb_down Cons
- Below-market pay
- High turnover
- Burnout around 6 months
- Difficult management dynamics
Great starting point
Good entry-level role where you wear many hats. Rewarding overall, though pay is below market — understandable given the nonprofit setting.
thumb_up Pros
- Good entry-level opportunity
- Rewarding experience
thumb_down Cons
- Below-market pay
- Wide range of responsibilities

Work-life balance is good and extra shifts are optional, not required. Base pay is low for the demands of the residential coach role.
thumb_up Pros
- Good work-life balance
- Extra shifts are optional
thumb_down Cons
- Low base pay for role demands
