Pros

Unfortunately, there are none when it comes to this misinformed group. However, it's truly unfortunate for the families that rely on the CEO, CHRO etc., to make sound and beneficial decisions for them. This group is more worried about their huge 6 figure salaries and when they're going to receive the next raise - than the homeless.

Cons

The frontline staffers are one foot out of the shelters themselves due to working at minimum wage without raises year after year. Case Managers with degrees are incredibly underpaid and also don't receive timely increases. Not to mention, they are always understaffed due to high turnover, which also means the homeless families don't receive the care that they deserve. But, don't worry about the C-Suite! They're living it up with their cushy salaries and firing the hardworking staff without investigating, who has time for that?!

Pros

Great, committed staff. Most colleagues. TRY to do the right thing, but always fail to do so. Decent pay and benefits.

Cons

CEO is toxic and known for yelling at people, talking down to people, throwing people out of her office, and cussing. Her paycheck is priority to her which is why she cares about raising money - not for families. Senior staff continuously get bonuses and annual raises (check the 990s) while site staff are mostly the ones who struggle to get fair pay. Executive Office staff have decent salaries, but also don't get raises or even COLA. They act like they care, but behind closed doors they only care about lining their pockets. Even when you hit your metrics it doesn't matter because nothing is ever good enough. SVP of Development is also problematic in that they are very unclear with direction, unforgiving of questions to get clearer direction, and being that they were new, not able to integrate to the way things had been done for years. Inability to adapt and created a lot of confusion.
