Vantaggi
Day to day staff genuinely believe in what they're doing and will work till they drop out of passion and loyalty.
Svantaggi
The pros are exploited at every turn by cynical and uncaring senior management and leaders. Staff forced to facilitate dangerous requests of staff and volunteers during Covid. Being asked to work such extreme hours that even the higher wages of management level employees frequently fell below minimum wage. Spiritual exploitation was rife - refusing to work to burnout seen as a sign of not loving Jesus enough. Carpet bagging diversity as a buzz word and 'taking accountability' while ensuring senior management overwhelmingly remains white, middle/upper class, and male. Happy to accept gay/LGBT interns but not embrace LGBT people or marriage more widely. Upper managers telling senior leadership 'yes to everything' and dumping the work and stress of that onto low level employees to figure out. An environment that necessarily exploits volunteers because the majority of staff are also being exploited.
