Pros

Trauma bonding with high-level employees who have often left golden handcuffs for mission-driven work

Cons

There's no use roasting Trevor - the rest of the reviews do it better. However, let this serve as a huge red flag. The organization will often hire for roles will knowing full-well they will potentially be laid off within months. Think twice if leaving a role at a functional company for a job with The Trevor Project. You may find yourself burned.

Pros

The best management and team I ever worked with doing work I appreciated with a focus on a vulnerable population.

Cons

Due to their focus being on LGBTQ youth, they are unfortunately at the mercy of trends in both politics and in philanthropy. Several rounds of layoffs happened as fewer people have maintained their conviction to protect queer youth.

Pros

The mission is one that is important and life-saving. The direct service staff is amazingly passionate and empathetic.

Cons

Upper management is completely disconnected from the mission and the severe impact the work takes on the mental health of the direct service staff. They’re running the organization as a corporation and expecting the employees who actually communicate with young people on the lines, text, or chat to act like robots.
