Pros

• Good benefits-large HSA contribution, high time-off accrual rate, child care assistance, the ability to roll over unused PTO, etc. • Several opportunities to connect with the Denver Metro community • A commitment to racial equity

Cons

• Poor culture-a critical environment that lacks transparency • Cost of living raises are offered annually, but there are few opportunities for performance-based raises • No consistency in many areas: who gets to work from home, who gets to flex their time, which departments get additional days off, how promotions occur, how staff is managed, etc. • The Foundation is lacking in processes and protocols • Leadership is often lacking-leaders turn a blind eye to issues they could (and should) address, which contributes to the current culture • Arrogance and self-importance displayed by seasoned staff members • Four CEOs in five years
