Pros

good PTO and flexibility with taking time off; helping clients achieve their goals can be rewarding

Cons

toxic work environment - understaffed and unequipped teams who feel the pressure of managing large and complex caseloads combined with a lack of quality leadership is a recipe for burnout. many people at the Seattle office were guilt-tripped and gaslit by managers. caseworkers/hourly employees do not get paid for overtime, despite insane overtime hours, and you rarely ever see changes implemented based on feedback from the direct service staff, which is why they all leave within 1-2 years. IRC also does not do a good job of hiring from within for excellent internal candidates who are looking to change roles or move to roles at HQ. more entry-level staff or looking into unionizing, or quitting, because they feel completely disillusioned by the leadership there.
