Pros

If coming from a for profit equivalent industry at first the lack of pressure is nice.

Cons

All systems create more work than they remove, this often results in the employment of another person to deal with the extra workload, which in turn requires extra revenue. Incredibly slow at moving forwards. Very little chance of progress for base level staff. Spends large amounts of money on big projects and training's that are unsuccessfully implemented or quickly forgotten about. Moving far too slowly in it's environmentally friendly practices for what is supposedly a conservation charity. Staff moral very low and getting worse. Financial control seems to be chaotic with head office having to correct a property's accounts at the end of the year leaving departments having no clue to how well or not they have done and unbelievably demotivated.
