Stated mission doesn't match business practices

Pros

*Colleagues who are smart and social-justice driven *Flexibility in work schedule *Wide variety of work *Some senior managers are excellent, but top-level management is terrible

Cons

Top-level management is abusive. Leadership has no management training/experience outside of current positions and this shows. No emphasis on professional development/career growth. Expect 60+ work weeks with no compensation. Project budgets are built assuming that all employees will put in hundreds of unbilled hours. State that they support people with lived experience, but show little to no compassion/support for self care/work-life balance.

Pros

smart, interesting, dedicated people work from home policy

Cons

leadership is willfully ignorant of organizational issues and employee concerns, large pay discrepancies, no upper mobility, expect employees to bill 40 hours a week whether work is flowing in or not, which also means consistently working over 40 hours a week
