Pros

The mission of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is to help raise funds to find a cure for blood cancers. This is especially important since Leukemia affects many children. The company offers career advancement in the non profit sector and offers valuable experience in the fundraising sector as well. Must of the workers have a passion for fundraising and knack for getting people excited about raising the funds. Team n Training offers regular people the opportunity to train for a marathon, triathlon and century cycle ride, and raise funds for cancer research and hopefully a cure!!! Really a dynamic place to work.

Cons

With certain positions, the hours can be very irregular and that makes it difficult if you have a family.

Pros

Flexible hours (but with the implementation of meeting metrics, poor schedule). Great time off and benefits.

Cons

The mission is inspiring, but employee well-being often feels secondary to organizational demands. Chronic understaffing, high turnover, and frequent organizational changes create an environment where employees are expected to take on responsibilities far beyond their job descriptions. Workloads can become unsustainable, particularly during campaign seasons, leading to burnout and low morale. Goals and budget expectations are often aggressive and may not reflect local market realities or available resources. Employees are held accountable for outcomes that can be heavily influenced by factors outside of their control, while support and staffing do not always keep pace with expectations. Communication and transparency from leadership could be improved. Decisions affecting employees are sometimes made without meaningful input from those doing the day-to-day work, and organizational restructuring can create uncertainty and instability. Many talented and passionate employees leave because they feel overworked, undervalued, and unsupported despite their dedication to the mission. While working at a regional office, there was strong lack of trust towards the national office from all of the employees.
