Pros

Work from home, family friendly, walks the talk when it comes to diversity and work-life balance. Works very hard as an organization to stay "on mission" and serve its many constituents.

Cons

The fact that the staff works from home offices and is geographically dispersed makes decision making and collaboration more difficult.

Pros

- Fully remote work environment - Opportunities to attend national and regional events - Strong, mission-driven organization

Cons

- Excessive virtual meetings that frequently run over time and often end without clear decisions or actionable next steps - Senior Leadership Team (SLT) members holding dual roles or overseeing departments outside their areas of expertise - Largely absent or ineffective IT and HR teams - Lack of updated training and onboarding resources for new hires - Frequent before/after-hours “urgent” communications from CEO, many of which could reasonably wait until regular business hours.
