Great cause. One who works there is giving back to am honorable cause. Mark Barden.

While the cause is honorable and needed, egos and unfair practices sometimes dominate decisions. Little to no people of color on staff. Org does not understand the value of other perspectives.

Pros

Supported large scale, mission driven programs with national reach Built experience scaling initiatives across diverse communities Strengthened cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder engagement Applied data to improve program effectiveness and outcomes Navigated growth, change, and evolving strategic priorities Integrated technology to expand access and delivery Contributed to work focused on prevention and long-term impact Gained experience in a fast-paced, high-impact nonprofit environment

Cons

Inconsistent alignment across executive leadership on management approach and decision making priorities Limited clarity or cohesion in how equity commitments translated into internal workforce practices Gaps between organizational values and day-to-day leadership behaviors and accountability structures Uneven investment in staff development, support, and retention across teams Challenges in establishing clear, transparent communication from leadership to broader staff Equity efforts more visible in external programming than in internal talent systems and advancement pathways Decision making processes at times lacked inclusivity or broad leadership input Organizational growth occasionally outpaced the development of strong management systems and structures
