Pros

The company offers a fairly good time off policy. It is the only area of the job where senority and experience is rewarded.

Cons

The company has really gone down in the years since I began working there. The mindset of the company is to complete as much work as possible with as few employees as possible. They invest their money in the wrong things. While I was employeed there we went three years with out pay raises due to poor leadership decisions. My management did not reward good work ethic. Myself and others in my department would go above and beyond, work long hours, weekends, etc. and it became expected instead of appreciated. They do no reward experience or knowledge.

Pros

My experience working with the Red Cross has been great. The work is fulfilling and the people are passionate. Benefits are good - Kaiser is $6 a month!

Cons

There is work life balance, but there is an expectation to work nights and weekends.

Pros

Flexible remote hours, supportive team that treats volunteers as contributors rather than interns, and a low-pressure environment

Cons

Tooling is limited compared to corporate environments — primarily Excel-driven, so you won't get exposure to modern BI stacks (Power BI, Tableau, Snowflake) unless you bring them in yourself. Data sources are inconsistent (legacy .xls files, manual exports requiring conversion), so expect clean-up work.
