Supportive Culture and Strong Leadership - Anonymous employee MichBusiness Employee Review

Working at the National Association for Business Resources (NABR) as a Program Director has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. Over the past 10 years, I had the incredible opportunity to collaborate with some of the most amazing companies that not only prioritize their employees' well-being but also give back to their communities. It was truly inspiring to see the positive impact these organizations made, and it was an honor to play a role in recognizing and supporting their efforts. One of the best aspects of working at NABR was the vibrant, fun, and collaborative workplace culture. The camaraderie among my colleagues made every day enjoyable, and together we organized numerous conferences that celebrated workplace excellence. These events were not only professionally enriching but also filled with unforgettable memories and laughter. Whether it was the excitement of event day or the teamwork that went into making each conference successful, every moment was worth cherishing. My journey at NABR was marked by immense personal and professional growth. When I first joined, I could not have imagined the professional I would become. Through the years, I benefited greatly from the mentorship and guidance of our leadership team. Their support helped me develop valuable skills in leadership, project management, and relationship building, which I will carry with me for the rest of my career. I firmly believe that I would not be where I am today without the mentorship and opportunities provided by NABR. If you are looking for a place where you can grow, have fun, and make a meaningful impact by working with organizations that care about their people and communities, I highly recommend NABR. It is more than just a workplace; it is a community where your hard work is valued, your growth is nurtured, and your contributions truly matter.

Lots of "hats" to wear in a small business.

I picked MichBusiness but it's the same brand I was in "The Best And Brightest Companies To Work For". For a pro, we were encouraged to have fun activities created by team mates but later we'd get pressure to work extra hours to make up for that fun time.

They don't do reviews of your pay, so my friends there said you won't get raises unless you say you're going to quit. I guess people go years there without raises which was my experience too. They talk about taking time off for yourself to but I know they were not happy when I would sometimes. The office drive to Detroit was bad but at lest I could mostly work from home.
