Vantaggi
Most of the people working here were very nice and believed in the work they were doing to help parents in the community succeed. They were truly an inspiration to me. The hours were relatively short.
Svantaggi
The organization seems to be pretty disorganized. There is a ridiculous amount of paper work. The department that I worked in in particular was so disorganized. Often I simply didn't understand why I was working on certain projects when they seemed to fall more under another co-worker's duties. CHEAP - I was often not able to work with the equipment provided to me. I have never worked somewhere where my home computer was luxurious compared to my work computer. They didn't want to hire a receptionist, so all of the other employees, including the ED and other top level positions, took turns watching the front desk. Honestly, that seems like a waist of resources. Do you want me doing the skilled job your hired me for, or buzzing people in the front door while my other duties are put to the side? Once, a huge filing cabinet fell over while an intern was filing. Frankly, it was dangerous. Over and over I listened to other employees with good ideas make great points. These people were talented, educated and skilled at their various positions, yet it seemed that the decision makers just didn't hear what they were saying. Much of the leadership seemed to come from privileged backgrounds and often didn't seem to understand the issues faced by the communities the organization served. There were other things that I was asked to do that I honestly found to be unethical.
