      Pros

      SCA is full of kind and enthusiastic people looking to make a real difference in the world and future generations. The training really prepares you for the job, from social training to work skills. The physical labor and teaching high schoolers how to build sustainable trails is very rewarding. Both of those allow for personal growth and gaining leadership experience. If you're looking for an awesome summer job and are 21 or older, I definitely recommend checking out the SCA Crew Leader opportunities.

      Cons

      As a Crew Leader, you need to rely a lot on your Program Manager and Co-Leader, so hopefully they are good matches for you.

      Pros

      Great experience, beautiful workplace, bountiful time to explore and enjoy the wilderness. This is a great organization that truly cares about the well being of their alumni.

      Cons

      Though the stipend is very livable, you will be strapped for cash, most of your money being spent on gas as a sheer result of the remoteness of most worksites to the nearest towns.

      Top heavy organization without much growth opportunity for employees.

      Pros

      Mission is good. And SCA is a wonderful provider of internships - for other organizations. Casual dress. Good amount of PTO and volunteer days.

      Cons

      Used to have relaxed office environment, but the atmosphere has become strained after multiple rounds of "right-sizing". Company culture and staff morale have suffered.
