Pros

Great mission and support staff who care about each other.

Cons

Ridiculous expectations, lack of work/life balance, and transparency between senior leaders and staff about salaries and promotions - currently based on favoritism, and no written guidelines for staff to follow in a career path.

Thank you for your feedback. We're disheartened to hear this from any employee, and would love to work with you to alleviate these concerns. Work/life balance is absolutely a priority for us as an organization, and with the hiring of our new HR leader, we are currently in the process of clarifying promotion policies for all employees, which will be published soon. We ask that you bring any concerns you have on these points directly to our new HR head, your direct manager, or another leader you feel comfortable speaking about this with. We hope to hear from you!

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.
