Pros

Some very caring and dedicated people work there.

Cons

Well-run companies thrive on independent thought, innovation and risk taking. TechSoup runs on fear--mainly of the CEO. She dictates acceptable thoughts, innovation, and risk taking. Sadly, this also manifests in the ways in which upper management operates as they spend a lot of time figuring out how to appease the CEO, how to approach her at the right time, say the right things and anticipate blockers so as not to fall out of her favor. When an entire culture of a company is run on fear and compounded with consistent layoffs, revenue issues, and a corporate mentality then it has lost the heart of what makes a nonprofit a nonprofit. In short. TechSoup has lost its heart. From an insider's perspective and from someone who has worked in the nonprofit sector for many years, I can honestly say thatTechSoup has lost what made it so great all those years ago. It is a corporation parading as a nonprofit. If you are seeking to make a difference in a company that cares about its people, fosters growth and morale and gives you the tools to succeed KEEP LOOKING. It's a toxic company and you can only stagnate there.
