Pros

The American Heart Association is a great place to work. Throughout my tenure, I’ve had the opportunity to grow professionally while supporting a mission that truly makes a difference. I especially appreciate the organization’s commitment to work-life balance and its supportive culture. I’m proud to be part of the AHA family.

Strong focus on career growth

Pros

This organization makes internal mobility a priority by focusing on career conversations with staff, their learning and development platform, recognition of great work, mentoring programs, and opportunities for employees to connect outside of their roles. It's a mission-driven organization where staff feel that their opinions are valued and that the work that they do is important, no matter their role. Incredible leads in the C-suite and regions that use feedback to drive change and results. When they say competitive pay from other non-profits, they mean it.

Cons

Department structure can be kind of confusing at times. Several training and development teams for systems, so it's hard to know who to go to first. Limited clarity on the structure of the Technology support teams. Always introducing new systems into the organization for efficiency, except certain aspects of existing software are not being maximized to their full potential. Multiple systems cause overwhelm for new hires as they start since there is no central location ("one-stop-shop") for them to find their resources.

Amazing mission and amazing people. I have worked for the AHA since 1997 in development. I left for 3 years and came back. It is an inspiring and exciting environment; we have amazing volunteers and are run very professionally.
