Vantaggi
The people offering front line service are truly inspiring. And to work in such a queer space was a gift. The people that show they care with their actions are some of the best you will meet. I guess the benefits are decent too.
Svantaggi
The challenges of working here are endless. I could not tell people to stay away more if I tried. The organization is so very toxic in the culture they display. The leadership team has created a space where staff feel uncomfortable raising any concerns. The opinions and livelihoods of white staff are prioritized over BIPOC staff, regardless of position and tenure. The capitalistic mindset of the leadership at this organization is actively going against the mission and they have shown time and time again that the care they display for the queer community stops when it comes to the hundreds of people they employ. From not listening to valid concerns staff have about the services offered, to pushing unrealistic and unachievable goals and timelines, and even with the most recent layoffs while bargaining with the union - this organization does not care about you. I highly recommend you seek employment elsewhere.
