Pros
Some staff genuinely want to help survivors. You can learn a lot if you network with other organizations.
Cons
Advocates barely make a living wage and are discouraged from working more than 36 hours a week, which results in an even lower salary. Then they are asked to "donate" their vacation to admin staff who are paid twice as much. Competent advocates leave within two years since there are zero advancement opportunities. Incompetent advocates are never fired so you end up surrounded by them if you stay too long.
