Pros

- Work life balance - Pay (probably because my position was through a grant) - Working hours were mainly Monday-Friday and seldom work on the weekend

Cons

- Lack of leadership - Management from top to bottom has no clue about all the programs the organization facilitate or how each of them operate - Way too much turnover and poor training of staff - Sink or swim mentality - Managements inability to take constructive criticism

Pros

The colleagues but they were unfortunately fired for no reason

Cons

| Unqualified and unsupportive management | No opportunities for advancement | Severely limited or inconvenient parking options | ADA accommodations regularly dismissed or resisted | Ongoing issues with workplace harassment that go unaddressed | Bereavement leave recently reduced without explanation or input from staff | Employees are guilted or penalized for using earned sick leave | Outdated technology makes daily tasks inefficient and frustrating | High turnover, with good employees often let go without clear justification or warning | Employees are micromanaged to the point of undermining trust and autonomy | Feedback is rarely constructive and often punitive | Unrealistic expectations without adequate training or resources | Conflict of interest with Human Resources: there is no dedicated HR department—only the Executive Director handles HR matters, which prevents impartial resolution of staff concerns |
