Pros

Co-workers and the Mission is great

Cons

New CEO is awful! I know things change with a merger & I'm okay with that, but new CEO is taking away most holidays, % paid into 401K & cost of benefits is going up drastically. Leadership is only worried about making money and could care less about the workers in the field. Pay is awful for what is expected. Merger is destroying what SightLife WAS all about!

We are glad to hear you have a good experience with LWVI teammates. Any changes from the integration have not been made lightly, but rather for the best of all stakeholders as we aim to be responsible stewards to our donor and recipient communities and a fiscally responsible organization. Due to the merger, we were able to increase the 401k employer match again and conduct a compensation analysis to ensure we are paying competitively within our industry.

Pros

This is the best work environment I’ve ever had hands down. Management is thoughtful and competent. Most people are super driven and caring, which makes a big difference in the day to day environment. One thing they do well is promote from within and really focus on doing the most good for those who need transplants. To me, the top highlight is the people you get to work with. Their hearts are in the right place and there’s a lot of support between coworkers. The PTO and benefits are good and pay has gone up recently. It’s also a very inclusive organization and very LGBT friendly.

Cons

Like many places, there are some slow periods as well as more intense times crunch times.

Pros

Great team environment with coworkers who genuinely support one another. The mission behind the work makes the job feel meaningful and rewarding, especially knowing the impact it has on others

Cons

Like many fast-paced organizations, communication gaps and inconsistent follow-through can occasionally impact morale. Middle management works hard to support staff but can sometimes appear caught between employee needs and top-down expectations that may not always align with the day-to-day realities and challenges teams experience

Thank you for the feedback and sharing your experience. We always appreciate hearing our teammates’ perspectives to see how we can improve and continue to operate with excellence. We heard similar feedback in the most recent annual employee engagement survey. Leadership has implemented changes from these results and is reviewing other potential changes.
