Pros

- Work mission - Diverse workforce and project areas - Other employees - Good culture/work-life balance - PTO policy

Cons

- Tremendous instability due to lack of clarity on the future of department/programs - Possibly illegal mismanagement and mixing of federal funding - New CEO (Lisa David) is two faced. Says the organization is doing well but has axed entire programs and departments to pad her own 350k/year+ pockets - Old managers being axed for questionable reasons and new managers being brought on at a higher pay scale but poorly equipped to listen/solve problems - Hiring has slowed and is subject to scrutiny - Appears open to feedback but formal channels are a sham to silence dissent

Pros

Public Health Solutions is a mid-size non-profit that truly does strive to live by it's values. Work-life-balance is valued across teams. There is a genuine sense of community and I really have enjoyed my working relationships within my program (WholeYouNYC) and across teams. The overall HQ office environment is supportive.

Cons

Pay is not as competitive as DOHMH positions. PHS follows a traditional hierarchy of leadership roles and promotion avenues. External professional development opportunities could be more robust and more equitably distributed across teams.
