Pros

One of the requirements for working here is that you must have a valid drivers license. However, they don't really check that, so if you have a suspended licence don't sweat it cause' they won't check it. You can even drive the company vehicles. Another plus is that they don't care if you drink company provided alcohol at their events. They will pay you while having drinks. That's pretty cool.

Cons

Don't work at weave if you have a history of abuse. Employees are not able to utilize the free services they provide to the community. If they find out you may wish to utilize them they WILL fire you. They expect you to work over time and NOT claim it on your time card. If you do, you will get in trouble. If you bring up that you have a problem with this they will seek revenge on you. If they don't fire you beforehand. They will make up lies and will defame your character. The HR will falsify documents and lie to keep "company costs to a minimum." Also, don't ever tell them about any personal health problems because if you do, it's only a matter of time before they will fire you, cut off your benefits the same day. They dont care if you have chemo treatments starting the same month. They will fire you for fear of having to pay for any expenses related to this. As far as donations are concerned, 90% of what you donate they go ahead and sell to goodwill. The safehouse kicks out residents if they don't like your name or, you have loud children. They have an abundance of supplies yet refer residents to utilize other organizations for supplies, diapers, tampons, shampoo, clothes, etc. They have a ton yet don't give it to who really needs it. They would rather sell it to goodwill. This company has no integrity. They only care about numbers and even admit that their grants require their employees to work 3 jobs and not just the position you were hired for.

Pros

Growing company, some remnants of decent culture left

Cons

Culture gone down the drain. Backstabbings are common, throwing each other under the bus, unrealistic expectations, stealth layoffs, etc. Little is done by management to figure out ways to grow & set a good direction -- so they focus on squeezing the employees for more output (as if us churning our more useless stuff is going to help you) so they can feel some semblance of control. I wouldn't work here.
