Pros

In my opinion and from observation: -Some of the people were really wonderful to work with and a pleasure to be around. -The benefits were very good for a nonprofit of this size. -The position was remote and allowed a lot of flexibility.

Cons

In my opinion and from observation: -Marginalized folks are used to show that the company reflects diversity when it truly does not. These folks are mistreated quite often. Employees that have stood up for them are mistreated as well. -The ED allows entitled persons, friends, etc to mistreat others with no consequences. -When anything goes wrong, ED blames everyone and fails to be accountable for anything, for instance, the stupid idea to change the name of the organization without seriously considering the negative effects. -ED and top level management gave themselves huge raises in pay and then had to lay folks off, they then took a "pay cut" to make it appear that they were suffering along with regular folks. -They do their best to keep the BOD from talking to and interacting with the staff and most of the board are friends with the ED and may go along with all of the silly ideas that ED wants to move forward with. -Layoffs are happening left and right, people are losing their benefits and many have left, due to the maltreatment received. -Poisonous environment that has the very disrespectful harassing culture that they supposedly fight against. -Not a safe space to be in emotionally. -No true transparency.

Pros

When I could spend time and energy with my colleagues away from leadership that could be awesome.

Cons

There's not enough space here to detail all the EEOC, HR and just basic human rights violations that happen in this organization. Nepotism is rampant. Leadership gave themselves a raise and promotion weeks before laying off almost half the staff during the holidays and then saying it's everyone's fault people were let go. Top performers are fired for made up reasons if the leadership feels intimidated by questions or just stops liking them. Employees were told not to meet with one another if a director wasn't present because they were afraid people would speak negatively about leadership (read: tell the truth). Working here is recipe for gaslighting, toxicity and trauma. Budget couldn't be mismanaged worse if they tried. Run far away. They have a diverse staff but only because leadership commits EEOC violations to cherry pick race/gender mix that will make them look good.

It’s a cult

Pros

COLLEAGUES. The social justice movement. The clients. The actual work.

Cons

Executives are ego maniacs. No HR department. Many staff meetings involved forced vulnerability exercises. Employees were fearful of looking like they weren’t an “org culture fit” if they didn’t participate. Leadership does not live up to organizational values or mission. Executives used harmful behaviors such as gaslighting and gate keeping to manipulate and exploit employees. The social justice movement was weaponized by leadership regularly. It is not a people centered. It is business centered. It is money centered.
