Scouting America

Is this your company?

Non-profit with lots of potential, but lead by the ultra-religious right when it should focus on civic issues. - District Executive Scouting America Employee Review

Pros

Developing strong community ties working with some of the top people in your city/area, but it's up to you as a professional good benefits sometimes, car is provided national growth possibilities

Cons

Poor management, old school and closed to new ideas. Hopefully new CEO will work on that, great guy. keeping up with technology is a challenge - some of my coworkers could hardly use a computer... Most of my coworkers had very narrow views and considered the BSA as an organization exclusively for white people - thank goodness they were a small minority. They should not work there them good ol' boys... working with and through volunteers can be a blessing or a curse. the age-old issues of rejecting gays, atheists and agnostics, and on a smaller scale, lack of knowledge of the American market - research is opinion based, not fact based.

Pros

Good health benefits via UnitedHealth.

Cons

Micromanage, cannot hold a conversation in office in this department without getting in trouble for talking with colleagues. However they expect you to come in 3 days a week at minimum to encourage team collaboration and team building. Meanwhile people who are paid at least 6 figures walk around the office holding conversations about nothing work related or complaining about local council employees and members-as if they do not realize without these very same people they would not have the big houses and fancy cars they own.
