Pros

Great place to work. Great work life balance. They really care about family. And they are a "work family" such a great environment to be in every day. Very flexible!

Cons

Working at United Way you have to care about the job! NOT the money. Obviously it's non profit so you can't expect a amazing salary. But they are fair.

Pros

You get to work with some of the greatest people you'll ever meet. We're incredibly diverse and inclusive. Staff range in age, geography, race, etc. It's really easy to make friends and even the folks you don't go to hang out with on weekends are still really great at happy hours.

Cons

We're tackling a big agenda, often on less than adequate budgets. Compensation isn't great, but probably competitive for the sector when you factor in benefits. Work-life balance can be difficult to maintain.
