Pros
- Best benefits of anywhere I've ever worked (9% 401k match, HSA contributions, no cost dental/medical) - Genuinely liked my day to day responsibilities. I can say well after I've left I do miss certain aspects of my role within my department - Worked with some amazing people (especially female leadership) and got great experience in my field
Cons
- The CEO, while outwardly appearing like the nicest guy, is the most out of touch misogynistic person I've ever worked for. Complains about how no one is loyal anymore yet belittles employees and treats them like children. If you disagree with him, even politely, you're wrong. If you are dissatisfied with something, you're the problem, not the outdated business practices. There is no trust and he is constantly inserting himself where his opinion is irrelevant. You'd think it would be an awesome thing to have the CEO so involved with his staff but here it's just a burden. The worst part is, I don't think he even realizes any of this - The not-for-profit status, whether intentionally or not, is used as an excuse to keep salaries low, despite the C level execs making up to 10x your entry level salary. You may have some luck if you are senior/director level when it comes to compensation but if not you're probably better off looking elsewhere - Staffing is a huge issue. Some roles that needed to be filled when I was still at the company are still vacant a long time later. My dept was continually understaffed - No flexibility, no working from home, work/life balance isn't great if you're not entry level, not a lot of room for advancement unless you're in the right place at the right time - Can't speak for other depts but I was miserable and overworked and led to believe that it was MY fault that I felt the way I did - Dramaaaaa
