Pros

Responsible for a variety of work, research and social media management. Flexible work environment with very friendly and encouraging staff members. Independence in work and team-work opportunities.

Cons

The summer is a less active time at the United Way and therefore I was unable to see the inner workings of fundraising throughout the year.

Pros

It is truly an awesome place to work. You grow and learn and have fun while all the while you get to help others in a meaningful way to better their lives in any way you can. It is a truly rewarding experience and the management and everyone you work with are very helpful and everyone works together and there is no mistreatment or abuse of any kind. Everyone is respected and valued and the environment is really great to work in. Thank-you and have a blessed day.

Cons

The only thing that I can think about is it is hard to get in there on permanent basis full time. Other than that, United Way is a wonderful place to work in and be at.
