Pros

Good people, flexible, incredible collaboration opportunities, the work is great and you can take ownership and do a lot. It’s a great place to be as you’re starting your career.

Cons

- Perpetuates the “if you work in non profit/ do good, you will get paid very little - because we’re selfless and don’t do this for money” narrative - A lot to get done with very little people - Time off has to be “earned” aka you have to work more than 42 hours a week to accumulate 2 hours off. To make it worse, this is true even when it comes to parental leave. Like I have to work overtime now or in the future to be able to care for my newborn. Which is ironic cause we’re talking about well-being all the time.
