Pros

-The office culture is steadily progressing across all departments. Senior management works hard to instill a person-first workplace. The culture on my team in particular was supportive, creative and energized. -Pay is pretty good for a nonprofit and there are opportunities to move up in most departments eventually or to a different department -From the CEO and COO to HR Director and QM, everyone was supportive and accessible no matter what level you were on. -The mission of my department meant a lot to me. I learned a lot in my role and was also given freedom to innovate. -The people working here are good people.

Cons

-The union can be a bit mysterious at times. It doesn't interfere with your day to day, but it was kind of a confusing presence on the back of my mind at times, perhaps due to communication/messaging issues. -You do clock in and out—some people are skeptical at first about that. It's really not a big deal once you get used to it and they are flexible as long as you communicate.

Pros

The employees who work here care about making the world a better place. There are a few different departments under the non-profit, Workers Assistance Program. If you come in and do your job, it is very easy to work here and get along with everyone. Many employees go work out or go for walks for an hour each day during work hours for wellness. After 18 months, there is an opportunity to work from home one day a week. Employees can volunteer up to 40 hours a year. The atmosphere is laid back, some people wear sweatpants to work! I've never once been told I can't take time off, there is a good amount of vacation and sick time awarded.

Cons

The salaries are pretty reflective of a non-profit receiving funding from government grants. Some things take a long process to get accomplished. Some of the previous negative reviews are from former employees who worked at WAP before it became under new management and their frustrations are really no longer an issue.
