Pros

In my experience, Cru balances mission-driven work and projects with strict deadlines. They are proactive in driving work forward and ensuring accountability, yet remain highly supportive and maintain a healthy work-life balance. Additionally, they are innovative in their use of newer technologies.

Cons

Like any non-profit, progress can sometimes be slow. However, I often see these moments as reminders from God to love everyone and view them as opportunities to support and help others improve.
