Pros

Faith based organization that tries to maintain its compassionate culture while growing in size very quickly. There are a lot of good people who are working with you that believe in the mission of serving our communities.

Cons

Within the past couple of years, has attempted to centralize the shared services for all of their ministries in which resulted in lay offs in several regions and relocation of jobs to their Renton headquarters. It did not feel like a well executed plan and there is no method as to why some positions were eliminated and why some indiviudals were able to maintain their positions without moving to Renton. It seems like they are held back by living in a world where people need to be micromanaged and sitting in a tiny cube instead of keeping great talent by utilizing technology and allowing people to contribute from whatever region that currently reside in. Seems like there could be some organizational politics at play when observing exceptions that are made or at least that is the perception and that doesn't breed an environment of trust.

Pros

coworkers pay supporting people in community They post the same job in multiple locations because they are open to having that role exist in different locations in many cases (note the pay is also based on where as well though) Info for those reading reviews to get a picture: I'm United States, but India reviews should really be separate feedback entirely, paid less and fed daily (read location: Hyderabad).

Cons

My last management was completely toxic Had health issues and a valid claim that was ignored, only pressured Was pushed out by my management when they found out my salary Mgmt requested to submit feedback for improvement, then retaliated Since HR was outsourced and trying to protect the company from further lawsuits (I was not one but contemplated due to validity) of absolutely no help and honestly, completely inappropriate. You will be repeatedly asked to provide feedback, but it will be killed with a 1 on 1. If I had laid down and taken the angry repercussions of their poor process implementation, and their complete lack of accountability, I would still be there - I just would have transferred to another manager. Some managers and teams are more toxic than others, but favoritism and bullying are allowed and seen Overworked and under-represented but was great for several years.
