This organization should be out of business!

Pros

Honestly nothing! They work you to death, criticize your work without providing solutions, and treat volunteers like garbage!

Cons

Long hours, low pay, unrealistic expectations, bad programming, negative attitudes, etc. To use the term emotional terrorists would not be overreacting, they push people to the edge and blame them for things they cannot control.

Pros

Wonderful mission = building girls of character. Provided excellent resources, some team members were positive and supportive, salary was initially fair.

Cons

Discrimination is rampant - ageism, by appearance, and by longevity. No institutional knowledge was encouraged. Leadership runs the organization by fear and distrust and restructures constantly. The environment was set by whatever trendy book came out that year.

Pros

Getting to interact with the Girls (though it is minimal) Decent benefits Flexible Hours

Cons

Toxic Work Environment EXTREME micromanagement Severe Gaslighting ZERO trust Very Heavy Workload, with little to no room for work life balance No real support from management Pay is not even remotely comparable to the amount of work you do Little Communication between departments Doing the work of multiple titles in one role for little compensation No room for growth or upward movement All about gaining numbers, and not about the girls or their experience Overall: Management does not trust their employees, and the employees get burnt out super early on and have no where to go with it. It is not worth the stress or the level of questioning yourself. There is severely high turn around in this position and there is a reason for that.
