Great Place to Work, With Wonderful People. Not a ton of room for growth.

Pros

Great people, wonderful mission, and good benefits/PTO. Treats employees well. A great place to start a career and learn.

Cons

Has the typical constraints of working for a non profit. Not a ton of room for growth, and the last time I worked there, there was no system in place to give yearly raises. I had the same salary there for about 3 years. I was also very overworked.
