Pros

I have worked many jobs before beginning my career at The Trevor Project. For the first time in my life I feel like my identity matches my work, and I am fully accepted for who I am. I am encouraged to take time off which is a new experience for me. In some of my past employment there was a lot of guilt around taking a sick day, but it is encouraged within my current position. I feel like my work life balance is prioritized in meetings with my manager. The pay is decent too, and working remote is ideal.

Cons

There is a specific vertical within the org that has been neglected. Management within this vertical has been let go due to a recent uprising within the organization, and I am hopeful positive change is on the horizon! Everyone deserves a voice, and this particular team seems to have had that voice taken from them despite their importance to the organization as a whole.

Pros

The best management and team I ever worked with doing work I appreciated with a focus on a vulnerable population.

Cons

Due to their focus being on LGBTQ youth, they are unfortunately at the mercy of trends in both politics and in philanthropy. Several rounds of layoffs happened as fewer people have maintained their conviction to protect queer youth.

Pros

The mission is one that is important and life-saving. The direct service staff is amazingly passionate and empathetic.

Cons

Upper management is completely disconnected from the mission and the severe impact the work takes on the mental health of the direct service staff. They’re running the organization as a corporation and expecting the employees who actually communicate with young people on the lines, text, or chat to act like robots.
