Pros

Direct service workers are amazing that do the best with what they're given

Cons

Fear of layoffs happened constantly after mismanagement that never felt resolvable and process was neither empathetic nor respected employee well-being as we were still being expected to work through the uncertainty and pick up the pieces if spared. Long term plans from higher up to meaningfully improve let alone be sustainable seem unattainable as the need for the service grows and band-aid solutions from revolving inconsistently qualified executives who may or may not care about more than their professional futures are not enough. Worsening work culture I don't think will ever bounce back. Best of luck who people who stay and try to make it better from the ground up despite the pressure and what is constantly thrown at you. I hope the work can be done without being at the expense of the people who keep this sinking ship afloat.

Pros

The best management and team I ever worked with doing work I appreciated with a focus on a vulnerable population.

Cons

Due to their focus being on LGBTQ youth, they are unfortunately at the mercy of trends in both politics and in philanthropy. Several rounds of layoffs happened as fewer people have maintained their conviction to protect queer youth.

Pros

The mission is one that is important and life-saving. The direct service staff is amazingly passionate and empathetic.

Cons

Upper management is completely disconnected from the mission and the severe impact the work takes on the mental health of the direct service staff. They’re running the organization as a corporation and expecting the employees who actually communicate with young people on the lines, text, or chat to act like robots.
