Pros

The mission and history are amazing. The commitment of the volunteers just astounding.

Cons

National management is overbearing and recruited out of Corporate America. The heart of the organization is fading. It was appalling to understand how little of the chapter budgets made it to those in need or for the benefit of the volunteers. The overhead for the national structure is inefficient. Senior leaders making over $400k in salaries. Wow.

Pros

Flexible remote hours, supportive team that treats volunteers as contributors rather than interns, and a low-pressure environment

Cons

Tooling is limited compared to corporate environments — primarily Excel-driven, so you won't get exposure to modern BI stacks (Power BI, Tableau, Snowflake) unless you bring them in yourself. Data sources are inconsistent (legacy .xls files, manual exports requiring conversion), so expect clean-up work.
