This paper, based on a nationwide study of psychosocial rehabilitation workers and administrators, examines the congruity of worker and administrator perceptions of worker motivation for entering and leaving the field. Workers are motivated by the intrinsic nature of the work to enter into and stay in the field. Job burnout is as important as low pay in forcing workers out of the field. Administrators, however, perceive money to be a major factor motivating workers to enter the field and perceive external opportunities as forces that pull them away. Thus, administrators must address their workers' needs if their agencies are to offer quality services.
