      A worthwhile mission, but a brutal grind

      Disaster program manager

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working with diverse communities, helping people in times of disaster, leading passionate volunteers.

      Cons

      A constant demand to do more and more with fewer and fewer available resources. The average lifespan for those in this position is hovering nationally at about 1.5 years, and it's because the job WILL burn you out, the work/life balance is next to nill, and the emotional toll is heavy. But the work is definitely worthwhile.

      Pros

      People are great, I like the mission. 401 plan is good. Lots of diversity, good supervisors.

      Cons

      Understaffed. The pay isn’t competitive, the raises are insulting. The upper leadership doesn’t seem to care about it’s employees, can be stressful trying to compensate for people calling out. New hires and long term employees keep leaving. Long term employees often have repetitive hand injuries.
