Pros

The vision is something I can really get behind. The staff are very passionate and really care for the clients and are committed to the mission. The clients themselves are some of the most inspiring people you will ever meet. Despite really tough working conditions (long hours, limited resources, gaslighting) they have a good PTO policy (2 weeks off + week of Christmas + personal & sick days) and comp time for late hours.

Cons

The tough working conditions make this place a very difficult organization to work for long term. There is frequent staff turnover and employees who leave are painted as if they simply weren't committed enough. Leadership struggles to listen to staff and accept accountability. Like other reviews have mentioned, this is not a great place to work if you are a woman or a PoC - unless you are one of the tokens.

Pros

Great work-life balance and focus on the "whole employee." Executives are focused on building up employees to win in their job and personal lives. Nice salary structure, especially for nonprofits.

Cons

Every organization has issues from time to time but I cannot think of anything too awful.

Pros

The mission of the organization is fantastic, and many individuals have been supported by its work. There are truly lovely employees that create a great atmosphere. There is always opportunity to grow and learn new skills.

Cons

Leadership at CP is more concerned with optics and self-aggrandizement than actually helping people. They recruit people of color to work for them for the sake of optics but use them and refuse to hear their actual voices. Jason is like a poisonous tropical fish - his charm pulls you in, but if you get too close, he is poison. If you’re a smart person looking to love your neighbor, be prepared to be steamrolled into doing exactly what they want (regardless of if you agree), or you will find yourself verbally and spiritually abused.
