Pros

TBF is filled with highly passionate people who want to make a difference. While many of the lower-level employees have spent most of their careers in the social sector, much of the upper management has come from corporate, so the Foundation has a distinctly corporate feel. Senior staff is accessible.

Cons

There was quite a bit of turnover during my time at TBF, so I did't find the sense of community I expected.
