Pros

Leadership is top notch, pay and benefits are more than I hoped for working for a church, and there’s not more valuable work I could be doing as a product designer.

Cons

I can’t spend Christmas or Easter with my family out of state. It’s definitely worth it to give that up to make a difference and be part of this movement, but I still see it as a con in this season of life.

Pros

Most of the people are incredible, especially new hires and on the YouVersion side Many of the long-term people on staff are also incredible Everyone on my team I love Large amount of diversity, generally highly supported Good benefits for non-profit Incredible Mission Work is never boring

Cons

There are some people, many of which have been there for many years and are in higher level positions, who are very rude and hard to work with. They also have difficulty accepting change and generally are very opposite of the overall culture. Life Church's feedback center culture is great usually, but it can and often is abused. Feedback is typically around personality, which again can be extremely toxic in the wrong hands. The same people who can be toxic in what they say and how they treat others, are the same people who will teams/email you after hours and on weekends and expect a response. The people who expect 1 hour of turn around time for very difficult tasks, but they want several weeks of turn around time for simple things that you ask for. Most people are good, but just one person in a leadership role can cause a lot of hurt and stress

Pros

Our mission is solid and our culture is healthy. You will learn more about yourself, your leadership, and your spiritual growth if you lean into the development opportunities around you. I can't imagine being anywhere else!

Cons

You have to be okay with being authentic. This is a church and you will be held to a higher standard than you'd expect anywhere else.
