Pros
* Incredibly friendly, collaborative environment * Lots of emphasis on employee well being * We're fighting climate change, head on! Where else can you do that? * The organization is committed to make itself more efficient and more effective * People respect and appreciate my experience from outside, not resentful or distrustful * In tech, I'm using all of the latest cloud based solutions and moving projects to current best practices, so I'm not falling behind in skills
Cons
* The collaborative, healthy-employee environment can feel slow at first. (I'm coming from a sales role where it's push push push every end of month!) This is actually not the case, but stylistically, it can feel that way. * The entirely distributed workforce (and a keen eye on travel/burning carbon) can make you feel a little disconnected. This is true everywhere, though. * Of course, I'm not making as much as I used to, but I'm doing much more meaningful work. * This organization does so much, it's actually hard to get your arms around all that is happening.
