Pros
Nothing beats working for a charity with a great mission! UUSC is small enough for staff to feel like one big family, but its network of partners spans the globe and enables us to maximize our impact in a big way. The history of UUSC covers nearly 80 years of humanitarian efforts assisting marginalized groups in dire need. Fellow staffers are friendly, helpful and energetic with an all-inclusive culture that recognizes effort and accomplishments. The salary and benefits are very generous for a charity of this size and the offices are conveniently located right at the Central Square MBTA red line stop.
Cons
UUSC is an ambitious group of folks who are involved in so many programs and projects that it is challenging sometimes to schedule vacation time. Fortunately, management is committed to prioritizing a good work/life balance!
