Pros

Great pay and benefits for a role in the non-profit space. Really kind and well-intentioned people, especially at the mid and junior levels.

Cons

If you're not in a senior-level position, your ability to shape and inform decisions, as well as your growth and learning as a professional, will be limited. High levels of gatekeeping, silos, unclear goals, and lack of accountability put mid- and junior-level staff in a very difficult position.

Pros

Good salary, nice facility, decent perks, benefits and vacation, most coworkers are good people who are easy to work with.

Cons

If you're into showing up and doing your job vs. spending most of your time convincing others of your implied value, you will be seen as a threat and marginalized.
