Giving back to the community is always a great feeling and you learn so much knowledge about non-profits out in the greater Dallas area.

Inconvénients
The most toxic work environment I have ever been apart of. The directors want to teach you how the "real world works" or how the "real" work place is like but this is the complete opposite of that. You are basically an underpaid, undervalued, servant. The full time staff preaches self care but also expects you to sacrafice your mental and physical health for pay that is less than minimum wage. You need a day off for a doctors appointment, headache, bum knee, family emergency? NOPE. Should have had that family emergency on a day you did not work. They want to control you every second of every day. Oh you have a degree relating to child development? Oh well too bad, the person with a music degree knows everything about that and you don't. Youre over 21 and want to drink on your day off. NOPE. Also if you're white, you will experience racism by one of the full time staff members. If you work over the summer, forget being an actual human at all. The hours are completely unattainable to reach until you're working 24/7. literally. You get no free time.
