Pros

Great mission. You know the work you do helps people in need.

Cons

Lots of change. Change that makes work life balance nearly impossible. People at National Headquarters could care less about their employees. Management is not good from top to bottom. With all the change in the last year you find every manager and department watching out for themselves. There is not sense of team. Lots of finger pointing. Nobody appreciates the hard work but be sure they will let you know if you make a mistake.

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.
