Definitely a scam.

Pros

No one I worked with was directly unfriendly

Cons

- THE REVIEWS WERE WRITTEN BY MANAGEMENT. Trust me, I’ve read them all, almost all positive reviews were written by the same people. It is NOT ok to make your ratings higher by lying to people. - as great as their products sound, many of them never actually do anything for the nonprofits. - $15 an hour is not worth how many times you’re going to feel awful telling a nonprofit there’s nothing you can do. - There is just way too much discussion about religion at work, it was uncomfortable and though no one was mean about it, as a non-Christian I felt out of place and that should never be something to worry about at your job. Seriously, even the nonprofits (new nonprofits) would ask if being Christian was a prerequisite to being on their site.

Pros

- The coworkers are great. - The atmosphere is pretty stress free. - Work/like balance varies a bit between departments, but is generally very good. - No workplace politics. - Monthly team lunch (usually Chipotle). - Lately, management has made greater efforts to improve compensation.

Cons

- No working from home. It doesn't matter if there's a global pandemic or if the roads are bad. You need to either come into the office or use one of your limited PTO days. The CEO says it's because he's protective of the company culture, but I'm pretty sure he just doesn't trust people to work remotely without committing time theft. - Management is cheap. The pay is on the low side. The snacks in the break room are usually expired. There's a rule in the employee handbook which says that you lose your unused PTO when you leave, which is illegal in the state of Illinois, so don't hoard your PTO days unless you intend to file a claim with the IL department of labor after you leave. - COVID-19 protocols are virtually nonexistent. The CEO says that they're an essential business so that he can force people to come into the office during the pandemic. No one wears masks. I have proposed new rules to make the office safer, but management did not enforce them. When I informed management that my wife has a preexisting condition which makes her high risk, they did not change anything. There was actually a COVID-19 outbreak in the office a few weeks after I quit. - Employee feedback is largely ignored. (see above examples) - Turnover is high. Especially in sales. ----------------- TL;DR - There are worse places to work, but also far better places. Management is cheap, stubborn, and a little dishonest. If you're desperate for experience, I suggest working here for 12-18 months and then moving on to something with better pay and perks.

Pros

- co-workers were kind and fun to be around

Cons

- unclear expectations and no direction - not great working hours and flexibility - the company is focused on making money and not on helping nonprofits - Project World Impact is a horrible name for a company that just does marketing services to make money
