TransFormCA - Program Manager TransForm (CA) Employee Review

Terrific mission: promoting walkable communities with excellent transportation choices. Terrific staff: strong investment in shared leadership and building capacity at all levels.

It's a nonprofit group that does advocacy, including a social justice focus, so fundraising is always a high priority and challenging.

Flexible! Even better benefits! Treated like humans with lives outside of the organization. Learning and experimenting encouraged (especially if you luck out with a great supervisor). Fun culture and even more fun coworkers. They really try hard to retain talent.

If you’re a person of color, it’s hard to move up the ranks. You have to fight twice as hard to be recognized as a credible person who deserves that title and salary increase. Also with some Directors you have to put up with being micro-managed because you’re a person or color.
