Pros

Love the people I work with, the diversity is amazing. I love the actual work and clients.

Cons

Pay could be better and a departure from expecting the same level of quality work with less resources would be nice.

Very passionate people around. Super intelligent and capable colleagues. Opportunity to learn a lot of different skills.

Cons

Extremely high stress environment. You're on your own, hence you learn a lot. Inefficient.

Pros

I love being part of direct client-facing staff. I enjoy the passion of the coworkers I work with. Because I work within a new program, I enjoy the freedom to develop systems and processes that best work for me. It's fun being a part of developing the tracking methods and workflow that will be adapted in the future.

Cons

The office lacks the funding to hire the appropriate support staff that is needed, so everyone is over capacity and there is no help to be had even if you ask for it because everyone is trying to stay afloat. As a newer office, it means that processes are not fully developed and so you're on your own and that's often frustrating and disorganized. It means often being reactive instead of proactive when addressing issues. Plus, the onboarding process is so ineffective and inefficient. It is only focused on refugees, which is not helpful for CHE staff because everything in that program is different.
