Pros

Working for United Way enabled for me to expand my horizons and connect with the community of Isabella County. Overall, it was a pleasure working with the team and I would recommend working with this non-profit organization to anyone.

Cons

The only negative that comes to mind is that the internship did not directly translate to a full-time position with the organization.

Pros

The work environment is awesome as well as the people that work there. I enjoyed the worked I did for the community and would do it again in a heartbeat. The CEO is a wonderful person that is a pleasure to work with and really cares about the work that he does for San Bernardino County.

Cons

As far as cons, I would have to say that they need to employ people that live in the community in which they serve to better understand what focus points should be addressed. Surveys should be implemented to better help the community to bring more opportunities and trainings to needy families.

Pros

The organization has potential and there are definitely some very talented people working there. It is a great place to network and meet other leaders in the community.

Cons

No vision. The organization is constantly chasing new program opportunities and lacks the focus or the courage to do what is necessary. Lots of turnover mainly do to very little upward mobility.
