Pros

Staff make IRC great regardless of the internal politics.

Cons

A lot of back stabbing and internal politics that get in the way. Everyone has an opinion and expresses it.

Pros

Committed, dedicated people compared to other resettlement organizations. Upper manager is available, but your experience depends a lot on your immediate supervisor. Made a lot of friends with dedicated people who are talented and want to help people

Cons

Low starting pay ($17), benefits okay for new graduates but insufficient for those with families. Some people may experience conflict with coworkers. Can be gossipy or distracting depending on who is currently working on your team. Entry level workers on average stay about 2 years.

Pros

I felt like part of family from day 1. It is an honor to serve a company that serves so many people in a positive way. Knowing I am a small part of making a difference would be enough for me, but this company offers so much more. The employees have the same compassion bestowed upon them. Because of the culture of the company, you will always feel included, accepted, and know that your opinion matters. Such a positive atmosphere and it makes you WANT to do your job.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any cons. I have loved roles before, but due to lack of DEI, I didn't feel they were a good fit for me. I don't see that ever being a problem here.
