Pros
- I work with truly lovely, smart people - the employees here are dedicated to their work and it shows. - Relaxed culture - Work/life balance is great - you actually see people take time off! Plus, lots of paid holidays, including a week between Christmas and New Years. - Pretty good benefits, even compared to for-profit companies. - We're not entirely grant funded, which makes me feel more secure about working at a nonprofit.
Cons
- For a tech company, we're pretty low-tech. There are a lot of manual processes that could be solved by a online solution. I think we're getting there, but the change has been slow. - CEO is smart, but is largely out of touch with reality and what goes on day-to-day within the org. A lot of the c-suite's time is making sure the CEO doesn't do anything unwise. Don't work with him closely, and for that I am grateful. - Not terribly diverse, though we do have a high proportion of women in the office and in our leadership staff. - Salary could be higher, but what else is new? - Opportunities for growth exist, but are not clearly defined. Some teams seem to handle this better than others.
