Pros

Great clients, helping improve the lives of others

Cons

Dictatorial approach to management. Micro-manage time, don't recognize extra effort, don't trust or empower employees. There is a reason the managers work in non-profit because they'd never make it in the for-profit world

Pros

The job itself is great. Love what I do and enjoy helping the clients. Work-life balance is very good as well.

Cons

Unfortunately, JVS is terrible employer. It's ironic that we try to help people find quality jobs and try to help employers be quality employers, and yet JVS itself does the opposite. Intentionally underpays employees (not even a livable wage for Boston), limited career progression opportunities, toxic leadership and culture from the top down, no strategic focus on our actual goals, and double standards for work expectations. Really questionable decision-making.
