Pros

- Provides an opportunity for employees to learn the work while expanding on their skills - The employees are driven and truly care about the community at hand - A place where one can gain strong casework experience, handeling all parts from intake to closing

Cons

- Upper management is unstable, policies change on whim, and there seems to be a disconnect between that behavior and the relentless hard work of the case workers - The board is simply a fundraising board with little to no oversight of day to day matters, thus allowing upper management to manage without checks and balances
