Vantaggi
As a field manager in the field canvass department, I have experienced many great things at The Blue Bench. The canvassing staff are all compassionate about the work we do and the change we create in the communities we reach out to. Currently sitting as the top grossing office in a network of non profits, the opportunities for growth in the network is great. The network not only houses personal development opportunities, but also traveling opportunities as well. It is rare to work with a non profit that promotes one's personal and professional development.
Svantaggi
Opportunities to move up in position at The Blue Bench as an organization is more uncommon. The canvass staff is one of the larger groups at The Blue Bench, and the prevention, counseling, and case management team are definitely smaller. I have experienced folks who have wanted to move departments, but have been postponed due to lack of positions available.
