Pros

You get to do a lot of fulfilling work if you’re passionate about the mission or your career

Cons

You end up taking on other peoples jobs because they’re too busy being clique-y and talking to each other. If you’re a newer employee, the higher ups will pile on their work on top of yours because they can. On top of that everyone likes to backstab and talk badly about each other, especially the ones who are not in the community or friends. Terrible place to work. They made me feel like I couldn’t take a day off because they thought their mission and work was more important than my own health. On top of that, employees were there WITH COVID and didn’t tell anyone because they were embarrassed and when people found out, they decided to hide the truth as well. The managers don’t care about you unless you really can relate to them. Also, lots of day drinking by the managers and higher ups!? A great company with a good cause, ran by awful people.

Pros

A real sense that you’re doing something meaningful.

Cons

While the mission of the organization is admirable, the internal culture often undermined the work being done for vulnerable populations. Leadership turnover was constant, with management structures frequently changing and new supervisors appearing every few months. There were often multiple layers of management with unclear roles, creating confusion, competing priorities, and a workplace environment that felt more focused on internal politics than supporting staff. Many employees were deeply committed to the mission and routinely gave far more of themselves than was sustainable. I know I did. The workload and culture made it easy to lose any sense of work-life balance, and there was little meaningful support for the emotional toll of the work. What was most disheartening was watching an organization built to care for vulnerable people become, at times, one of the most difficult places for its own employees to feel valued and supported. The disconnect between the mission and the treatment of staff was significant. Several years later, I still recognize the impact that experience had on my professional confidence and overall well-being.
