IDK shit about AmeriCorps. Anyone got the lowdown on them?
The actual org I’d be working with is an anti-homelessness org in my city. The pay is super low and they were transparent in saying “yeah a lot of the people that work with us have other jobs” but after 2 years of hardly any income, and a chance at a job where I’d actually be helping people, I’d take it in a second.
Guess what I’m looking for here, is “is there anything shitty about AmeriCorps I should know if they offer me a job?”
I will also say if you work hard and drink the cool aid there are often opportunities to work with them more permanently but you really gotta drink the cool aid and suck up to make that happen.
