Pros

The mission is worthwhile: increasing LGBTQ representation in media Some colleagues are great

Cons

The Senior leadership team, despite winning media awards, is clueless, manipulative, and unwilling to make decisions for the good of the organization. You will work long hours in the name of working at a “hybrid for profit/non profit media/marketing org.”They also spend money like water because the CEO believes she’s the head of a Corp like Condé Nast. Some programs teams have no leadership and do whatever they want, spend what they want without oversight, and have no governance. They call themselves experts but have no formal expertise. Many teams don’t enjoy working with them. HR has no power because senior leadership has disempowered them. GLAAD doesn’t value the dollars donors give them. The funds are spent carelessly. This is not a great place to work.

Pros

Meaningful work, summer Fridays, access to merch

Cons

Management is just awful, there's constant turnover (even amongst the leadership), toxic work environment, at times there's been no HR rep whatsoever, gaslighting coming from the top, below average salaries. Complete communication breakdowns and staff that is largely unhappy.
