Pros

The staff in general is wonderful (upper managent excluded). Very passionate, kind co-workers working together to help animals. Overall, the organization is very effective and powerful in improving animal's lives. I am proud of the work I do.

Cons

Very low pay for majority of employees (except for executives/senior staff who have outrageous salaries), also below average benefits, especially for a non-profit. There is a storng culture of cronyism - Wayne Pacelle's friends have all the senior positions and make the big salaries. Advancement opportunities are few and far between for most employees. High turnover.

Pros

The mission - of course. Remote work Benefits are decent

Cons

Favoritism - people get promoted because they are friends with someone or because they are appropriately performative. Inept leadership - Very few of the people managers know how to manage people and/or business process. No strategic leadership - we have a mission, but the strategy doesn't trickle down to those doing the work. Siloed - Departments don't work together. It is common for other departments or even individuals in your own department to sabotage or undermine your work. Zero transparency - The Board is a mysterious entity that no one understands. C Suite doesn't communicate down. The C suite itself doesn't work with its members. Everyone is doing their own thing. C suite is disconnected from the real work. The C-suite micromanages and discounts the expertise of its team. Operationally deficient - very few business processes, no clear roles and responsibilities, top heavy, slow to no decision-making. My concerned with performative measures and optics.
