Vantaggi
There is a hard working and friendly team of staff committed to support and improving the membership experience. Opportunity to make an impact on member experience. Some volunteers can be great mentors or collaborators. Decent Health benefits and retirement.
Svantaggi
Toxic volunteer culture - volunteers drive decision making and often make decisions that aren’t in best interest of general membership. There are a lot of political dynamics, staff have little to no voice in decisions, and there is no accountability against volunteer behavior like bullying, discrimination, or procedure/policy violations. Organization says diversity is priority but has key volunteer leadership who continue to hinder progress and dismiss experiences of harm. Staff are underpaid and overworked.
