      Believe in the mission, employment experience depends on department and supervisor

      Pros

      The mission to help people in need and teach people how to prepare for an emergency. When people are prepared for the unexpected, recovery from the disaster is quicker and can save lives.

      Cons

      As in any company the employment experience depends on who you report to. Some supervisors are true leaders and some supervisors are simply a boss. We follow leaders because you respect them. Bosses are followed because you have to. Depending on who your supervisor is will depend on your satisfaction with the job.

      Great mission, questionable execution

      Pros

      The organization has a fantastic mission, and most employees are dedicated to it. There's a great sense of teamwork on the local level. It's nice to work for a brand that's so well-respected and well-known. Somewhat flexible in work/life balance when there's no disaster.

      Cons

      The pay is terrible unless you work in fundraising. They're currently going through a restructuring--second one in two years--that has resulted in massive staff cuts. It's justified by relying on volunteers, but I think the cuts have been too deep and too much is being put on the volunteers.
