Pros

Thoughtful and friendly coworkers and leadership. Above average benefits for the Seattle market. Solid growth path leading to opportunities for employees. Ethical and community focused. Walk the talk when it comes to people helping people. Overall a positive experience as an employee and a member.

Cons

A bit dated on technology and processes. Slower to adapt to changing ecosystem in technology. Salaries at all level are below Seattle average - difficult to sustain this way with cost of living in Seattle. Also possibly not able to attract top talent, which Seattle has plenty to offer.
