Pros

I stayed as long as I did because of my coworkers. Many have come and gone, but I always enjoyed my time with them.

Cons

The Red Cross is a failing business due to decreased blood demand and trying to get back on track financially. Many cuts have left most of Biomedical understaffed and overworked. There is a plan that should succeed but for what is already very low pay per position, many good staff are going to leave if they haven't already.

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.
