Pros

Pay no attention to what I'm writing, Instead, seek out people who worked at Trevor in the last year or so. Anyone except someone at the very top will tell you the truth. Then you can decide for yourself. My pros: - At the lower levels, talented and passionate folks doing difficult work. - A worthwhile mission, at least on paper.

Cons

Again, don't take my word for it. Talk to someone who works at Trevor, or worked at Trevor within the last year or so. My cons: - Exceptionally bad (possibly criminally bad) leadership at the very top: the CEO, the COO, and the Board. It's as if they don't know how a nonprofit works, and when you try to tell them, you get fired or criticized for wrong thinking. And then they return to their endless meetings about how important diversity and transparency are. - Morale at such a low level that a whole lot of folks are shy about being definitive about what they do or what they're expected to deliver. - Critical nonprofit infrastructure is missing (if I said it here, you wouldn't believe it -- so instead, talk to someone directly) - Two massive layoffs in one year, and there are more coming (this isn't a guess, this has been said -- behind closed doors, of course) - Employees are attempting to unionize, and good for them. But... the partner union they've aligned with is going to turn out to be a bad choice. All you have to do is look at their books to see that...
