Pros

IRC hires a fantastic group of people and provides employees with extremely rewarding work. Every hour you spend working here is benefiting someone else less fortunate.

Cons

The pay is abysmally low. It's unfortunate because it's a great company to work for, but you just can't sustain yourself financially at the current salary.

Pros

Great co-workers and clients, meaningful work helping international refugees resettle and adapt in the U.S. Good for volunteer opportunities.

Cons

Low pay, staff poorly treated and under appreciated, over-sized, management-heavy bureaucratic organization with outdated, entrenched hierarchy, high turnover among workers and middle management, negligent towards California state labor laws regarding vacation accrual and overtime pay.. Money stays at the top and does not trickle down--funds not available for essential office supplies.
