Pros

Good mission in PHSS Curriculums are good in comparison to the CPR and First Aid training industry Focused on sales to corporations Prices are competitive for our market area Sales push is not over the limit for the compensation level

Cons

Extremely disfunctional in communications from managers to reports Inconsistant messages Too focused on single sale activities Too difficult to gain customers away from competitors because of ineffective business policies Too easy to lose customers because a manager must approve negotiations. Easier to buy a car from newbie sales rep than it is to get permission for price negotiations

Pros

My experience working with the Red Cross has been great. The work is fulfilling and the people are passionate. Benefits are good - Kaiser is $6 a month!

Cons

There is work life balance, but there is an expectation to work nights and weekends.

Pros

Flexible remote hours, supportive team that treats volunteers as contributors rather than interns, and a low-pressure environment

Cons

Tooling is limited compared to corporate environments — primarily Excel-driven, so you won't get exposure to modern BI stacks (Power BI, Tableau, Snowflake) unless you bring them in yourself. Data sources are inconsistent (legacy .xls files, manual exports requiring conversion), so expect clean-up work.
