Pros

The company offered great benefits such as BCBSM health care, dental and vision. At times they were flexible on hours and paid time off. Since it is a non-profit organization, the work is meaningful.

Cons

In my experience at this company, the cons out weighed the pros by a long shot. The environment has passive aggressive undertones everywhere you go. I felt I was lied to and mislead often. I did not feel appreciated. My department was extremely unorganized and me and my team often were blamed for mistakes that were made by our boss. As a team, we were continuously frustrated and disappointed, and felt when we spoke our mind that our leaders could have cared less about us. It was difficult to do a good job with a leader who did not know how to lead us. I felt like no matter what I did, how hard I worked, it was never good enough. The supervisor I had didn't bring up issues that needed to be addressed until months after. Once I became pregnant, I felt I wasn't treated well and I was laid off shortIy before my maternity leave. I wasn't the only one in this company to experience this. The company tries to say that they treat everyone like family, and they truly care about their employees but I didn't experience it that way. I ended up being assigned to jobs that an intern would have been doing, and I wasn't able to grow in my field. Working here killed my self esteem, and frankly it was traumatic. I never want to work in a non-profit situation or an office situation for that matter ever again due to working at this organization.

Pros

Mission is beautiful with their dream of helping restoring site

Cons

Leadership operates in a highly authoritarian manner if something is not done exactly as directed, it is deemed wrong. Leadership lacks the competence or willingness to directly address issues as they arise; instead of providing real-time feedback or corrective guidance, they focus on building a documented list of perceived shortcomings, creating a paper trail rather than resolving problems in the moment. The organization publicly promotes work/life balance, yet in practice expects constant availability, fostering a culture where boundaries are discouraged and burnout is inevitable. While the company claims to value open dialogue and a judgment-free environment, employees who raise legitimate concerns particularly regarding workload, sustainability, or burnout are quickly labeled as negative or misaligned with leadership’s “vision,” even when those concerns are shared by other managers. Advancement into management is strongly discouraged by the realities of the role: excessive 70–80 hour workweeks, limited support, and compensation that is not competitive or commensurate with the demands. Remaining in lower-level roles provides significantly better balance and overall value than pursuing leadership positions within this organization.
