Pros

Flexible work schedules and dress. Compensation and benefits are competitive for a nonprofit in this region. 6% 401K match and very low cost employee benefits. Opportunities for non traditional training ( boat driving, scouting, climbing)

Cons

Commuting subsidy is lower than what is required to commute from the end of the lines. Things can change rapidly and it can be difficult to keep up with all that is going on.

Pros

Rewarding to feel like you're working for a good cause. Really does expand your comfort zone, really can significantly improve a talent for sales and interpersonal skills. Social job - for the most part very nice coworkers. (Only the highest up I had issues communicating with) Fair pay, flexible hours. Great Team Leaders.

Cons

Very stressful. Management's idea of encouragement is a stern office morale of 'no limits! no excuses!' and to not discuss or even acknowledge human error. Not very uplifting. Many get disheartened when they don't meet team goals. Have overheard backtalk and mild sexism coming from higher ups. Tiring work, 5+ hours on your feet walking, no real option for bathroom breaks. There can be uncomfortable or confrontational situations - you often walk alone, which I think is a bad call. Door 2 Door crew should operate in groups of at least two. Lunch breaks are had in stairwells and parking lots. Occasional obligatory meetings take up time you're not paid for.
