Improved with management change

Pros

The non-profit sector can offer a workplace culture and atmosphere that is hard to find in public companies. There was workplace camaraderie and a sincere caring for the clients, even by the accounting and administrative staff. I was definitively sad to leave this and the office politics in my next place was a bit of a cultural shock. The place had improved with a change of management in finance and it had become a good place to work.

Cons

HR did not take the complaints of management issues seriously, until there was a change in management above this person and they listened to our issues. Pay was low, and pay increases were not always possible, but this is not different than other non-profit organizations.

They say you really know how the employer treats their employees once you give your 2-weeks notice....

Pros

Easy-job if you just want a job, not a career. Good as a stepping stone, fresh out of H.S. or college. Supposed to be the best in it's field.

Cons

An distrustful environment of ladder climbers, back-stabbers and incompetent employees. Many of these "problem makers" have been there for 10-30 years. Lay-offs have been occurring for the past 4-years. Low-salary is understood.
