Non-profit means you work for poverty wages.

Pros

The people are wonderful and the work is meaningful.

Cons

Many working within the agency are enforcing policies that they don't understand and therefore are not equipped to enforce properly. You then end up getting the runaround and having to explain to people things that they should know in order to do the job that they are doing. Pay is awful (be prepared to have an advanced degree and not be able to pay your bills and be on public assistance...), and you will be kept just under full time hours so that you don't qualify for benefits. While there are many wonderful people in the agency who give everything to what they do, there are many more who do not do their jobs and never see consequences for it. You will be doing their jobs, as well.

Pros

A majority of the employees work here because they want to give back to our community and help those in need. Teams work to the best of their ability on incredibly low budgets (the lower level staff).

Cons

Hard work is NOT rewarded, for those who go above and beyond are expected to do so. Company raises are non-existent, management indicates this is due to them being "non-profit", insurance is very expensive and only high deductible plans are offered. There is almost NO development of employees happening. Depending on your working location, employees are not even informed about new job postings or career opportunities. There is a very high turnover rate.
