Pros

flexibility with outside obligations (i.e. - school, children, MD appointments, caring for aging parents), personal satisfaction in assisting those less fortunate (working in the food pantry or in disaster services, assisting those that have lost most of their personal possessions.), Autonomy in your work, self-directed, self-managed goals.

Cons

very little leadership, poor quality leadership, hardly any support from supervisors, left to flounder when called to defend your work, not defended by your direct manager. Too much autonomy, no direction provided. most jobs are a combination of 2-3 positions - i.e. too much work crammed into not enough time. No auxillary support.

Pros

My experience working with the Red Cross has been great. The work is fulfilling and the people are passionate. Benefits are good - Kaiser is $6 a month!

Cons

There is work life balance, but there is an expectation to work nights and weekends.
