Eagle Ranch Reviews

Pros

A life changing place - for the children we serve and the staff

Cons

Truly, there are none to report

Pros

Amazing community and relationship building opportunities Opportunity to pour into children and families. Great benefits and donated goods

Cons

Challenging personally, emotionally and spiritually to work Secondary trauma experience from working with those in trauma Low monetary compensation (mostly made up for with other compensation benefits)

Pros

Great loving, supportive community growing opportunity for career in counseling as well as spiritual life housing provided use of all facilities on property including chapel, pavillion, pool, and gym individual counseling provided for you

Cons

Must learn to set boundaries with self and co-workers to have time off. If you talk about work before/after work, you'll feel like you're working all the time. (This could be a pro too since it teaches you how to set boundaries.) Also, because assistant counselors are provided housing and required to live on-ranch, they must remain unmarried until their contract is up.

Pros

Great community, Faith based, beautiful place, safe place to deal with emotional issues, opportunity to be family to the hurting.

Cons

Difficult to be involved anywhere else/schedule makes it hard to have outside social life.

Pros

Staff are excellent. Very close knit community.

Cons

The emotional stress of the work is taxing, but the staff is very supportive.
