Pros

Remote work is the only pro here.

Cons

profound understaffing, the burden of unrealistic goals, brutal hours, managements new age performative art piece called “Empathy”, the impact of compassion fatigue, reversal of certain compensation/benefits, a lack of work-life balance, planning all PTO requests 3 months in advance and an appalling refusal of management to provide support when it is most desperately needed

LWVI provides support and resources to help our employees succeed. If teams are understaffed, we are working to recruit and train as quickly as possible. We are aware that the hard work to honor donors and recipients can result in compassion fatigue, which is why we prioritize work/life balance and mental health. Please reach out to upper management or HR if you need further support.

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.
