Pros

You get to work with the people that the mission supports everyday and certain departments have a flexible work environment

Cons

It's hard to tell sometimes what some of the VPs and upper management do in their jobs. In certain departments the leadership is lacking and there's no one around to motivate you to do well in your job.

Pros

-As stated by other on here, the company fills the company's mission statement "To create and enhance opportunities for independence and self-sufficiency for people who are blind, DeafBlind, and blind with other disabilities." But falls flat after that... -Single with healthcare is somewhat affordable, 170-190$ Monthly (Medical, eye & dental). -If you have a disablement & nowhere else to work, this place will provide a paycheck. -Great stepping stone

Cons

-Healthcare for a non-disabled employ with a family is outrageous, unless your company management & can afford to pay the costs of 450$+ for husband & wife, 850$+ for family. -Company CEO is so focused on opening another satellite company that current problems are not addressed. -Company recently "discovered" 3 million was "missing". Further driving a lack of any finical support for satellite company's. -Company HQ offers 0 support & dumps problems on lower management. -Offers no incentive to non-disabled employs to stay when better benefits & pay can be found elsewhere.
