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?"
