Pros

The vast majority of employees who work there are kind and incredible folks. It's a select few leaders at the highest level who are difficult to work with. They also have recently split away from FiscalNote via sale, which is a huge positive for them.

Cons

FiscalNote was the worst thing to happen to Board.org. I don't feel wronged by Board.org, I feel wronged by their former parent company. Take a look at FiscalNote's Glassdoor reviews if you need to learn anything. During my tenure, the culture FiscalNote brought to Board.org was deplorable. I worked Thanksgiving and Christmas. No work-life balance. I wasn't even given a chance to succeed. My final interview before being hired was with my bosses boss. I asked point blank if there were any budget issues or job uncertainty. I was told absolutely not. Less than a year later, this very same person calls me out of the blue to lay me off due to company downsizing. So wasteful and disingenuous. This person is still with the organization. If you have a mortgage, kids to feed, or require job security at this time, I encourage you to be careful and weigh your options. I sincerely hope things are better since my tenure, the incredible staff there deserve it.
