Pros
- there are some very decent, helpful people, who strive to represent the company in the same light that they saw when they applied for their jobs. - they DO hire people with "rougher" backgrounds, which in my opinion is the real service they provide to communities in need.
Cons
- If you don't want politics to interfere with your work life, don't work here. I'm a liberal, but I do not believe in decision-making based on specific political agendas. If you're a loud "woke" person, this place is the perfect fit for you. Even if you're severely underqualified, you should take the leap, because as long as you represent the target audience, you're wanted there. - Almost all of the senior leadership is messy and collaboration is not effective. Lack of communication causes a lot of misunderstandings about what is going on operationally and has resulted in people who did nothing wrong being fired without cause. But, it's okay, because your onboarding paperwork says they can do that if they please and you cannot dispute it. Don't forget to check the fine print. - As lovely as their mission sounds per their website, I can assure you that there will be no voice at any table for you to be involved as the company develops unless you've got a "c" in front of your title. I've personally witnessed the leadership teams instruct their colleagues on how to present themselves when speaking with others, extremely ignorant to the belittling undertone this presents to their co-workers. The welcoming environment they display during onboarding will immediately shift as soon as that period is over.
