Pros

Decent benefits and paid time off for employees who have five or more years with the company. Good place to get skills for other companies. Plenty of hours if you want them.

Cons

Lots of managers and too little actual workers. You still have departments dwindled down to one or two actual workers then three or four layered managers. Much of the work put in by current employees goes towards paying lavish retirement pensions for past workers. Lots of red tape for simple task.

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.
