Great place to make a difference - as long as you stay inside the box.

Albany, NY (US)

Current Employee – been working at American Cancer Society as a contractor for less than a year

ProsOpportunity to help people. Most employees aren't there for the money, but because they are passionate about their job. Follow their "rules," and you'll be fine.

ConsVery bureaucratic. Set models and guidelines that you are expected to follow, yet they supposedly encourage out-of-the-box thinking.

Advice to Senior ManagementActually encourage and reward people for being innovative! If you're going to structure yourself as a corporation, you need to restructure your management too.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
