Pros

A few coworkers were supportive and made the environment more manageable during difficult periods.

Cons

Poor management structure, lack of support, and compensation that does not match the demands of the role. High turnover and a constant need to fill positions reflect ongoing issues within the organization. The level of stress was consistently high and, at times, impacted overall well-being.

Pros

Truly helps the community, and has seemingly endless resources available to them for new projects and movements. Very supportive of the LGBTQ+ community in an area where it is very much needed. They *try* to be a tight knit, family-esque work place, but the disconnect between C-Suite and those in non-supervisory roles makes this kind of a fail. However, you can tell the intentions are good, and I think that matters a bit.

Cons

The constant in-fighting amongst staff, several of the staff members are high or otherwise intoxicated most of the time, and their pay scale is awful. Paying therapists $21/hr to take on excessive case-loads, registration staff barely making more than teenagers in fast food, and their medical staff is not paid nearly enough for the workload they have to carry. Lot's of gossip from a small, multidisciplinary group of individuals that spend entirely too much time tracking the work-day, and personal lives of other staff members then discussing it.
