Pros

AMAZING group of hard-working individuals, inspiring programs/initiatives, and relatable staff (co-workers) that made every day a fun experience (or at least as much fun as it could have been)

Cons

Insanely underappreciated workers at the company; from criminally low pay, to straight up verbal abuse, management has no plan to curb the exodus of good employees. I've witnessed an employee getting verbally assaulted in a team meeting, as well as having been sworn at myself - both instances were from the worst "leader" I have ever worked for. Management will give you the power to work on a project, but you are on a really short leash in the sense that every action you make and dollar you spend is criticized to no end. Nothing is ever good enough for this sociopath. Also, it seems that some of the Indigenous programs are only backed by the company if it reduces their costs and there is a high profit margin...Not genuinely concerned with actually bettering Indigenous Peoples' lives (don't get me wrong, my colleagues loved what they did and who they worked with, it was management that didn't show any empathy unless there was a dollar sign behind it). Worst employers I have ever worked for. Raises are usually in the 1% range as well...1% of 45,000 is $450. Horrible compensation for such hard working individuals.
