Pros
As an anti-poverty organization, we have the opportunity to help people help themselves and that is very rewarding. The organization has a culture of inclusivity and strives to help people, including our own staff, reach their full potential.
Beyond the rewards of helping others, the Agency has decent pay and excellent benefits including health care, retirement and tuition reimbursement among others.
Cons
The nature of the work we do can be stressful and burnout is a real thing unless adequate self-care is prioritized.
