Pros

I really like the work we do and the impact we get to have. I like the people I work with, they are generally very kind and motivated by helping others. Senior leadership seems strongly invested in supporting team members. The pay rate has increased significantly since I started. Starting wage was $15 an hour in 2018. Starting wage is now $25.64 an hour. Solid health care. A lot of time off.

Cons

The job is fairly demanding. At the manager/ director level I feel like it is challenging to keep up with the workload, there is always more to do. It is also challenging to fully check out on days off or PTO.

Good mission, confusing leadership

Pros

Generally, people who work here are good people. The mission is important and most employees are trying to do their best.

Cons

Employees get mixed messaging from leadership, and often confusing leadership styles. You will be asked to do more than what's in your job description, often because of "staffing issues" or "budget issues". There are lots of good ideas that are never done becaue there isn't the "bandwith" to improve as an organization. You will be asked to do more than what you're job outlines, because most staff puts the clients and AWC's needs above their own. This organization knows this and expects their staff to do so. They depend on it.

Cons

Pay isn't great - as is typical for a nonprofit.
