Pros

Offers a unique and creative way to fulfill civic duties within schools, corporations and the community.

Cons

Having spent 10 years of my professional life working for nonprofits, I have seen the good, bad and the ugly. FCE is by far the worst managed organization I have ever seen. The CEO is an intellectual embarrassment and lacks professionalism in and outside of the work place. He is careless with donor contributions and mismanages company funds to benefit himself. Elaborate parties are thrown for the staff on a regular basis. He gives himself raises without consulting board members. Dave Green is a master salesman who manipulates board members into believing he is the reason for the organizations "success," when actuality he is robbing them blind. I am ashamed to have ever worked for this organization and would strongly worn anyone against accepting an offer of employment.

Pros

It's a young company - your ideas are mostly welcome and there are opportunities to try new roles if you stick around. The intern program - the reward you get from leading young adults and helping them find their passion or just how a workplace functions The people - for the most part, FCE has some of the best people around Benefits package was decent if you didn't have dependents

Cons

There are a number of cons but the biggest reason I left was the CEO. I have a suspicion that the positive reviews that cropped recently were written by the CEO, Dave Green to raise the ratings. He has poor decision-making ability, hires/fires people at will with no explanation. There was a point where 3 people were hired and 2 weeks later fired because they were excess. He's surrounded himself with yes-men who will do his bidding for fear of being fired or are truly that naive. He sticks his hands into every detail of the business and attempts to make changes without consulting the people it will effect. There is no discussion, just him giving orders without having the whole picture. His Central Floridian of the Year award is a joke.

Pros

The work that’s done for the families we serve.

Cons

Leadership is terrible starting with the head of the snake that should be cut off. Dave Green is terrible at managing this organization. Department seem to be run my children, providing no direction and feedback and are surprised when things don’t run smoothly. Favoritism seems to rule the company org structure providing for no upwards mobility or incentive to grow with the organization. It’s even rumored that the CEO converted to Mormonism as to acquire the business of the LDS church -_- Pay - not terrible but ever worked a 60 hour week and have management try to sneakily take away worked hours as to not pay OT. Welcome to FCE! I’m pretty sure most of what they’ve done is illegal but nothing new to the CEO.
