Pros

Most employees are dedicated to the mission and so everyone is working very hard. They have a wide variety of resources and provide lots of support for their clients. Office morale was good and the perfect amount of hustle and bustle. The staff that works with the clients really cares deeply about what they’re doing.

Cons

The organization has some flaws in terms of employee appreciation. Unfortunately because their funding has been cut, they have had to lay off some people etc and it had shuffled around some personnel in the office that seemed ill-informed. Some people were getting praised and recognized and getting raises for no reason and some staff was given more work with no recognition. From higher up, they seemed pretty blind to what their employees were actually achieving.
