Vantaggi
-Great mission, culture and teammates -Incredible work is being done for veterans and active-duty military -Good work/life balance and the org values the employees' overall health and wellness -Flexibility, especially for those who are able to work remotely (as opposed to hybrid because they live near an office - they have less flexibility )
Svantaggi
-No COLA whatsoever. -Upward mobility is very limited, as is the ability to get an increase in pay. -Their merit increase system is flawed, minimal, and biased as opposed to being connected to your KPI's/annual reviews. You may get a small increase every 4 years or so, which isn't even enough to keep up with inflation. -Due to increasing inflation rates and the plateaued salaries, remaining here long-term doesn't seem likely. -Annual bonuses sound great in theory, but they are taxed at a higher rate than income, and should just be part of your salary. Instead, they take a chunk of what should be your salary and separate it into an annual bonus. -This is all VERY frustrating considering how much $ the org raises each year. We are constantly told how fantastic we're doing financially but this isn't at all reflected in pay.
