Pros

Great survivors and volunteers. Great cause.

Cons

Money focused not people focused. Lost focus on Mission due to ambition. Patient and professional support reduced to almost token level. Employees are ruthless internally in pursuit of "success & advancement". It is very competitive, You cannot trust anyone.Office culture not embracing of diversity. Employees have no voice. Poor work-life balance. Promotions only for those who know how to apple polish, do not ever challenge leadership, or have someone who likes them in leadership.

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.
