Pros

The mission is great and supported by mostly dedicated, hard working staff. Paid time off is pretty generous.

Cons

The CEO, Mary Heafy, is a terrible leader- she is vindictive, spiteful and uses bullying tactics with her direct reports and those at the director level. As a result- her lack of skills and knowledge, the culture of this organization is one of constant turnover, distrust and fear. Very sad to see this happen to what was once a wonderful organization. The current board is both apathetic and blind to her bad behavior giving a perception that they approve of bullying and law breaking.
