Pros
-This team truly cares about the work and each other. It's an incredibly supportive, trusting team with very little internal politics. I always felt like my teammates were coming from a place of support and positive intent, which shaped my experience there. - Incredible flexibility and work-life balance, including 4-day workweeks. - Opportunity to work alongside inspiring entrepreneurs and build a great network / community in the social innovation space. - This team brings very little ego to their work and leads with humility, compassion, and curiosity. I think this is what entrepreneurs, community members, and colleagues respond to.
Cons
- Traditionally, there hasn't been a lot of predictable upward mobility for director level staff, although there's always opportunity to jump into new projects / responsibility. - Not a ton of technical infrastructure / standardized process underpinning the work, which is a limiting factor in running repeatable programs and on boarding new talent, but this is incrementally improving.
