- Like many nonprofits, resources are limited, so roles can feel stretched—especially during busy fundraising cycles. - Limited upward mobility within the fundraising team due to small department size. - Some processes could benefit from more structure and system integration to improve efficiency. -Higher pressure than the typical non-profits -The culture is slowly becoming corporate than charitable.

Pros

Working at Windmill Microlending has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career, thanks to a culture that immediately made me feel valued, supported, and empowered. From the beginning, I’ve felt deeply connected to our mission of helping skilled immigrants and refugees succeed in Canada—it gives real purpose to my daily work. What’s been most impactful for me personally is how quickly I’ve been able to grow: I’ve taken on new challenges, expanded my skills, and progressed in ways I didn’t expect so soon.

Cons

I truly see no downside—only a positive, collaborative environment where I can thrive.
