Pros

The organization is going through a major period of growth and expansion. Many things that worked before no longer work and have to change. The senior leadership team is working to solve for a scaling company and trying to redefine expectations.

Cons

Just like with any growing organization mistakes have been made in hiring and timing of changes.

The Trevor Project Response

Hey there, and thank you for your 5 star review! This is a great place to work for sure... we have amazing people who support our critical mission to save lives. When you've got a mission like we do, it's tough to slow down--the work is urgent, the need is urgent, and continues to grow. It's a major opportunity to do great things, but isn't an easy ask, either. We are listening, though--and hope that you are sharing your thoughts, concerns, AND suggestions with your direct manager and skip-level manager... and even senior leadership. If you'd like support in framing your feedback or approach, your People and Culture team is also here to listen and help! Feel free to reach out to any of us for support... you can always reach out to me, and I'll get you connected with the right folx... trish.ferrett@thetrevorproject.org
