Pros

You get the pride of helping homeless military veterans, but that's about it.

Cons

The pay is terrible for the sheer amount of responsibilities you will have as a case manager. You'll have to go (unarmed) to some very sketchy neighborhoods downtown to provide services to vets. And most of them were extremely ungrateful considering that their every need and bill was paid for, for the 9 month duration of services. I was falsely accused of racism twice during my probationary period, and management did not back me up. Instead, they brought HR in and bullied me into signing the write-ups. Because all they cared about was the possible tarnishing of US VETS image. I was not looked out for as an employee but was instead thrown under a bus just they they'd have some documentation on file that something was done. It was very insulting and I ended up quitting anyway, and it was the best decision I ever made for my career that they did not care about at all. I would absolutely not recommend this job to anybody as management is poor and again the pay is absolutely terrible for the amount of work involved.

Pros

Working at U.S.VETS is more than just a job—it's a calling. The mission to serve veterans is deeply woven into the culture, and you truly feel like your work matters. The team operates with a strong sense of camaraderie and resilience. There’s room to bring new ideas to the table, and your contributions are valued. The organization prioritizes collaboration, and mission alignment and authenticity really shows.

Cons

Like many nonprofits, we work with limited resources and that can sometimes mean wearing multiple hats. Things move fast and priorities can shift quickly, which may be a challenge for folks who prefer a highly structured environment.

Pros

Working with the Veteran community, the ability to gain partnerships and connections on your own for future endeavors, the hands on experience with the veteran population.

Cons

Leadership constantly trying to coerce and convince employees to do several jobs for one pay (already underpaid), when proper channels are taken in terms of complaints leadership and national only show face and do nothing for their employees, the unprofessionalism, blatant favoritism, leadership having their own agenda without considering their employees in any way especially their mental health, that constant damage control is done by National to try and keep people working in a depressive work environment. People lose their light within 1 month of working here, they all look miserable and openly voice that they are miserable there. Keeping certain employees who purposely created hostile work environments all because they know how to get the nonprofit big money. They like to randomly change people's schedules or work locations based on their own wants and needs without consulting or asking the employee it's directly affecting. Being watched on a camera daily, while supervisors also use other employees to be their watch dog when they aren't physically at work. Being called "trouble" for not allowing abuse when faced with wrongdoing. Seems like things are kept secret at certain sights, everyone always seems so shocked that this and that is happening and yet.. nothing changes.
