Pros

My coworkers are so supportive and amazing.

Cons

Upper management's behaviors are appalling. They replay the very abusive dynamic that we're trying to combat in our work, with its own body of staff. The company culture seems off. At first, they seem way too sweet, cheering you on, let's all do self-care vibes. But if you disagree with them, there's a good chance you're going to get retaliated. Upper management have poor managerial skills + lack of awareness of their own biases, that result in abusive way of interacting with staff. For ex: upper management have very poor boundaries. They favor certain staff, while gossip/badmouth other staff to your face. Again, I'm just sharing my honest, truthful experience of working in this company. Upper management, please do not throw temper tantrums when you're upset. This includes, discharging your anger at staff, making passive-aggressive, snarky remarks at staff who dares to speak up, shifting the blame to others. Please do not silence us once again by burying this honest review with random "positive reviews".

Pros

The organization is very focused on the mission of ending gender-based violence, as well as working to fight other injustices that impact other marginalized communities. If you care about truly working on behalf of communities this is a great place to work.

Cons

The pay doesn't increase as fast as I would like to see. Though I have to be honest and say I've seen multiple raises given over the years. This is a nonprofit issue in general.

Pros

The job was meaningful, the office was great, work boundary was good, and everyone there was nice and supportive. I like my coworkers and supervisor.

Cons

It's hard to survive in NY with the entry level salary but it's better than a lot of similar positions in the market. Also, you can get very busy once the caseloads build up and 8 hours is not enough for finishing all the work.
