Pros
- GREAT pay and benefits - SMART people - HCF is well respected in the community - Most of the people there are nice, decent, and are there because they care
Cons
HCF is not for everyone. Here are the main cons: - No real structure or fixed guidelines (everything is flexible or "it depends") - A very clear hierarchy of leadership (CEO, COO, VP, Director, Sr. P.O., P.O. etc.) - Because things are fluid, everything is subject to change... sometimes even daily - "Sink or swim" mentality, no mentoring, and no second chances - A few key individuals have very toxic personalities - 360 reviews (passive aggressive people love this) - It's questionable whether HCF is truly acting as a "community foundation" You need to be a very strong person who is not afraid to voice your opinion (in a respectful way), is ok with taking criticism (both personal and professional), has a strong sense of self-confidence, able to work independently but follow orders from the top-down, and willing to be ok with not being the one calling the shots (you won't be). The most important is having the strong self-confidence and being open to criticism. If you're not ok with this -- HCF is not the place for you. The weak don't survive.
