Pros
Great mission-driven people, solid policy & political impact, fantastic benefits and an HR team who cares.
Cons
The executive team taught me how NOT to be a leader. Their job is stressful, and perhaps that is why they do not live the cultural values determined by the rest of the organization. Or perhaps it’s the narcissism that prevents them from leading with respect, self-reflection, and empathy. They can be petty and hold grudges against employees, which I know firsthand. One experienced employee publicly stated “this is the most top-down organization I’ve ever worked at.” History of cultural issues that execs pay lip service to annually, but dismiss with their actions. Poor executive management can trickle down, though VPs get the brunt of it. This can lead to a mix of VP effectiveness across the org.
