Pros

CIS is a great organization doing great work for the community. The work hours are decent and coworkers are very supportive.

Cons

Sometimes clients can stress you out but this can generally be addressed with some self-care.

Fear Culture

Pros

They honestly do very good work for the community and help kids. It's just the the administration doesn't understand how to lead.

Cons

This is absolutely the worst work environment that I have even been a part of. A complete fear culture. There was very little training, and then they would berate you when you did anything wrong. Management and HR were the worst. HR would belittle people, telling them that they were stupid or incompetent. Management would do anything to throw others under the bus. If you made any sort of compliant about the work environment you were told that you just weren't mission driven enough. Very high turnover rate.
