Pros

THE PEOPLE! The people who work here are some of the best people I've met ever in my life. The mission of the organization is great and GG does a good job to keep things mission and values focused. I started here as an intern while in college and was brought on full time when I graduated as a Fellow. I feel like I was able to learn a lot of really valuable skills working here, and I really appreciated all the guidance and mentor ship I received from not only my direct supervisors, but from those on the executive team and elsewhere in the organization. I was able to learn the type of work culture and management style I work best with. Very data driven and metrics based. The Partner Services Team was the team I was on and I can't say enough nice things about them. Great team, great management, great educators for those new to the workforce. I wouldn't be where I am today without them!

Cons

The work can be repetitive at times. Customer service can sometimes be difficult because sometimes people get angry, bad connections, language barriers, etc. High volume of work, so there is some burn out. I applied for cross pod/team position while a fellow and felt that my interview process was very dragged out and lengthy--especially considering I had worked at the org for about a year and a half at that point--I interviewed with about 8 people--nearly every person on that team and a few others from other teams-- and everyone asked me basically the same questions and I was still turned down. I'm not upset I was turned down, because now I realize the job wasn't a good fit for me, but I do feel as if my time was not valued during the interview process considering it would have been an internal hire. I felt very strung along the entire time which was disappointing to see since I was literally working there during the entire process.

Pros

Everything was organized and prepared for me when I arrived and the onboarding process was very smooth. GlobalGiving had my accounts and systems prepared prior to my first day and they had projects lined up for me. The team members who guided me through my assignments were very helpful and provided comprehensive instruction on how to navigate the various platforms I needed to use. Everyone was very kind and welcoming and make a concerted effort to include me in all meetings and work social events from the beginning. Overall I really enjoyed the experience and learned a lot.

Cons

The office was sometimes quiet but very good for focus!
