Pros

Really great people work at FWD.us generally. Competitive pay and really good benefits. Compared to other jobs, work culture is positive.

Cons

Not the best growth for junior staff. The transition from small org to mid-sized was painful. HR practices stifle growth. You can take on a lot of extra responsibilities (succeed in them too), get exceptional peer reviews, and still not get promoted. They want to keep junior staff as junior for as long as possible.

Pros

I had a great and supportive team that helped me find my way in creative work. I discovered a lot about myself, my work ethics and my love for working in non-profits.

Cons

Not many, I think the only thing was that some days felt like there was a lull in the workload based on what was needed so maybe more projects to work on would have been helpful!
