Pros
The most powerful part of working at Salt + Light is that we do our work where our neighbors live. That closeness changes everything. We are not just running programs, we are sharing space and building daily relationships. It means we can step in right when support is needed, celebrate small wins as they happen, and be present in the hard moments too. This creates a level of trust and connection that goes far deeper than traditional service models. The values of dignity, compassion, abundance, belonging, and radical hospitality are lived out in every interaction, making the workplace feel like a true forged family. The impact is real, and you see it every day in the lives of neighbors and in your own growth.
Cons
The work is demanding and can be emotionally intense, but the team culture and sense of purpose make it sustainable
