So sad, it used to be such an awesome place

Pros

Amazing benefits, low-cost insurance, an on-site free clinic (saved so much money using that), an employee credit union that's flexible and helpful (helped us climb out of debt). And for the longest time, a forward thinking company, they knew that they couldn't sustain themselves on simple offertory envelopes so looked to expand into digital giving and other technology that would keep them relevant into the modern era.

Cons

Sadly, despite all those pros, this organization is hobbled by one huge problem. Poor management. Throughout the organization you'll find people that have been promoted to managerial roles that have no business nor experience in managing others. And their subordinates suffer as a result. So many departments in that organization are a revolving door as staff get fed up and abandon ship. Couple those pathetic managers with a political environment that's just toxic and you've got a recipe for disaster. Those very same managers that are incapable of being proper managers both manage upwards, so they look good to their own managers, as well as walk all over the service departments anytime they please. Think maintenance, human resources, or information technology. These ineffective managers take advantage of these other departments to get whatever it is they want, regardless of the effect it has on the organization. And a precedence has been set by the leaders that this behavior is okay so the departments are powerless to combat it.

Beware

Pros

Offers insurance options at a low cost, 401K matching starting at 30 day, decent paid time off and leave policies.

Cons

Little room for upward movement and promotions based on politics and favor, not on work and fit for the position. Was seeing many long and short term employees leaving due to disgust with upper management and under handed moves. Beware!
