Pros

absolutely loved the workplace environment. Had lots of young post-grads like myself. hybrid work environment. Campus is beautiful

Cons

temp status meant no benefits and there is unfortunately a culture that you have to temp before getting a full-time benefits offer. doing an internship also helps chances

Pros

Wonderful people, nice building, always a lot going on

Cons

- Employee morale is abysmal. There's a lot of people and all they talk about is how much The Carter Center sucks. Constant venting is the only way to get through it, but that's a terrible mental health environment to be in. - Temp program is not temporary. People will "temp" in a full time capacity for up to 3 years without receiving PTO, healthcare, or basic job security, all to save a few bucks so management can fly first class to Europe. Shocking that this is legal (?) - Public job descriptions are lies. They'll make you do whatever they want whenever they want. - Junior staff (even those receiving benefits) are underpaid $10 to 20k - The work is mostly for show. Hardly anyone actually helps the world. It's just a vanity project to get on panels and make speeches in flashy places. - Zero professional boundaries. Zero job training. Zero employee support. Everyone is set up for failure. - Toxic HR that will bully you into accepting your lot, (rumored to) ignore sexual harassment claims, refuse to put anything in writing, and gas light away your complaints, all with a big smile. - Employees are talked down to and ignored to the point of ruining their self confidence, trapping them in a horrible situation that they think they can't ever get out of. Many don't. It's really sad. Just quit - there's millions of other jobs and I promise you're worth more than how they make you feel.
