Pros
It is a pleasure to work at a non-profit organization with a larger than life mission to help the most needy populations in the country. CBI is structurally strong and organized to work towards making positive change in communities. I love knowing that my "job" is making a difference and is in direct alignment with my passion.
Cons
Due to working at an organization that is directly aligned with my passion, it is often a challenge to maintain my work/life balance. Also, being a person with a high level of compassion, it is hard to witness some of the societal ills that our target communities face. I have to remind myself that we can't fix all of the problems, we can only contribute to the effort of fixing them.

Pros
I have been with Capacity Builders since 2009, and can only summarize my experience by saying that it has provided an often overwhelming opportunity to learn and grow in the field of nonprofit and grant project management. More importantly, I have learned more than I could've dreamed about working in Navajo communities. This job fits perfectly with the values I cherish most: work hard, play hard, and never-ever stop learning.
Cons
It's not always easy. The work load is demanding, and I am often called upon to work long hours to meet the needs of projects and staff. Additionally, the company grows so quickly, that constant re-tooling of policy and procedure to meet new demands takes place. Management needs to focus on professional development for staff and improving the work/life balance.
