Pros

- Impactful mission that is helping cancer patients and their families now - Remote work with opportunities to engage volunteers, fundraisers, donors and patients in person - Excellent total rewards program that is industry leading. LLS truly values its employees with opportunities for personal growth, time off, and wellness - Ability to impact patients across the U.S. and not just within the market you live - a very impactful national non-profit with unlimited potential for future growth to reach patients, donors and volunteers - Dare to Dream / PedAL and Beat AML clinical trials are a game changer for cancer research, treatments and cures - Employees have a voice through management, Employee Resource Groups and annual employee opinion surveys. New Executive Leadership Team is listening!

Cons

- Remote work does come with challenges in managing time to balance administrative work, travel to meet with constituents in sometimes large geographies, and time for career growth and training activities. - Change can be slow just from the nature of being a larger national non-profit.

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.
