Pretty Good - Avis employé Direct Support Professional (DSP) all R friends

Everyday when I get home, I have this sense of fulfillment that I've never experienced with any other job. I feel like I've made a difference. It makes me feel really good about myself.

Some of the outings can be a little physically taxing

I genuinely loved the individuals I worked with and will always be grateful for the relationships I built with them. The DSP field itself is incredibly meaningful work, and the individuals deserved every bit of care and advocacy they receive. I would send a loved one to their program but I would absolutely not recommend working there.

Unfortunately, the work environment and leadership made the job emotionally exhausting and unsustainable for staff. Management lacked professionalism, accountability, and healthy communication, which created a very stressful atmosphere. There was a strong culture of favoritism, manipulation, and disregard for staff well-being that made it difficult to feel supported or respected as an employee.
