Pros

Unlimited PTO (pending someone can cover you which rarely happens). The idea of the company is great. Providing a good service for philanthropy, but its all terrible once you get inside.

Cons

I worked here for years. Terrible upper management and its constantly changing. They have little to no connection to the employees working 50 hours a week keeping the clients afloat. Lack of communication across the board on what is going on and where the company is heading. They will work someone to their core then let them go as if it never happened. I was witness to multiple people have mental breakdowns and cry in the restroom. You will be overworked and expected to feel okay about receiving no compensation for it, simply because you are working in the charitable giving industry. Do NOT work here.

Pros

If you interview well and know your worth can can get a decent starting pay.

Cons

Everything. I witnessed people get raises only to see them canceled hours later by the CEO before he tucked tail and ran out of the building. It was a known policy to never rate an employee above a “meets expectations” and to ensure that, they changed the role description to require going above and beyond so regardless of what you take on, it was expected. I saw employees fired on Dec 24th after senior management promised their roles were safe. They exploit their workers and 100% DEPEND on all staff working unending and unpaid overtime to maintain service levels and refuse to staff appropriately. Also the attrition is insane for a reason. Managers will hire friends over internal experts for the given role. They pay is shady and secretive and they will reprimand if you make it known you are aware of any other staff pay. I saw a colleague fired after his numbers slipped following the death of his mother. Management never told the team so when he returned from bereavement, he assumed we all just didn’t care, it was heartbreaking. I’m sickened I spent years of my life working for company

Even though we hope all of our employees stay for many years, we understand that people may need to make different career choices based on what is right for them. However, it is even more unfortunate when someone posts completely inaccurate information on a review. Many of the points made do not reflect the facts of the situation and these false claims have been made without the poster having knowledge of the situation.

Pros

-Many employees are nice and you meet a lot of caring people, but everyone is so overworked that you typically have no time to socialize or really get to know your coworkers. -It is nice to have unlimited PTO, but even this is a con because most teams are severely understaffed and you cannot truly take time off.

Cons

-All employees are overworked -Many managers severely micromanage their team. -Some programs are severely understaffed and drowning in work that will never be completed. -There are many tedious manual processes that should have been fixed by now -It is turning into a call center environment. This is a huge issue since most teams are understaffed and have additional responsibilities in addition to phone coverage - You will not have any time during the holiday season. This was disclosed in the interview, so most employees know this coming in ( I’m not looking forward to dealing with this holiday season but they were at least up front about it to me form the beginning. - Pay is not good for the amount of work given to the client executive. -My stress and health have only gotten worse since working here
