Vantaggi
Benefit package better than most NPO Provides a good mission - program staff are dedicated and work very hard - services are necessary and important. Program staff is the backbone of this organization
Svantaggi
To start - this organization desperately needs a new CEO and COO - having the two highest paid positions in an organization married... this is a huge conflict. Both the CEO and COO are self-serving, disrespectful, spiteful, and unethical to degrees that I can not even begin to process. I have seen deplorable acts of hate (to all people- LGBT, straight, allies, overweight, mentally handicapped, women, etc.), misconduct, and discrimination in my time at the agency. Their need to micromanage staffs PERSONAL life was one of the most ridiculous things I have ever experienced in my many years as a professional. The HR department is a joke, everything runs directly through the CEO, no one felt safe ever addressing a concern with a supervisor or HR because of fear it would get back to the CEO and could threaten your employment. If you were not part of the "chosen" staff you were treated like second class citizens. Extremely high demand on time, comp time was only given to selected staff members, while others worked the same amount of extra hours with no compensation. Fundraising monies were mismanaged and did not go to the areas that donors were told. CEO is media hungry - but does not follow through on projects. Several HUGE Press Conferences have been held to announce HUGE community projects and nothing has been done since - all show and no action, desperate to get more donations - but where are they going? Padding their own personal pockets one would assume, with several vacations a year, new cars, and salary increases.
