Pros

The cause is important, the clients are sincerely wanting help, and many of the employees are passionate and sincere in their dedication.

Cons

All of the executives and supervisors are burned out, unhealthy, and unfortunately acting out their own issues of power and control against those people working under them. This place is being operated unconsciously and ineffectively, and anyone seeking to improve things or contribute positively is seen with suspicion and eventually either fired or pushed out. One employee was asked to leave immediately after constructively questioning racism within the agency. The salaries are extremely low, but the morale is lower.
