Pros

As a tech, not much worry about losing job due to cutbacks.

Cons

Unprofessional co-workers aren't talked to. Leadership avoids them just as much as the line staff. Makes for an unhappy workplace.

Easy work, but flawed culture leads to stress, anxiety, and unhappiness.

Pros

Easy hours and solid pay for an entry level position. The MAC position is capped at 40 hours per week with no overtime, so burnout is easier to avoid. The work itself is not demanding, the emails/texting/calling can be tedious but that’s just part of working in donor recruitment and I didn’t hate it. For the most part, the team in the office is friendly and welcoming and makes most days a pleasurable experience. You’ll get to travel a lot around Eastern Washington and North Idaho which was mostly enjoyable.

Cons

The biggest con is a culture that is, quite honestly, disappointing. Management offered little in the way of motivation outside of “hey guys, our numbers need to be better”. We were coached constantly on being proactive, but subject to constant last second changes and failures due to lack of preparation from management and the team. Success is rarely, if ever celebrated. Had a good day and met goal? You’ll get a 5 second shoutout in the huddle tomorrow morning. That’s it. Additional complaints would include poor communication from management and between departments, as well as a staggering amount of micromanagement. My supervisor made me document every. Minute. Of. My. Day. No lie. I had to keep excruciatingly detailed notes on how I spent my office day for “efficiency purposes”, only to never receive feedback of any kind on my efficiency or work, essentially making those notes a colossal waste of time that could’ve been spent doing something actually productive. All told, quitting was the best decision I could’ve made.
