Pros

I've really enjoyed my time working at this organization over the last couple of years. If you work hard and do your best you will be encouraged to take on more leadership roles and will find it easy to do so in my opinion.

Cons

It's not really a con, but if constant change isn't your thing then you probably wouldn't like to work here! The org is always changing to do better and be better and is by no means stagnant. I suppose a real con is some of the internal digital services or IT infrastructure. Some coworkers work on fairly old laptops and I've seen them struggle with getting an upgraded one. Lastly, work-life balance can be difficult if you don't have a strict schedule with yourself. I've learned the hard way to not answer emails on the weekends or evenings. With members and co-workers being all over the world, there will always be someone who needs something. It can wait.

Thank you for the very positive review and we appreciate you taking the time to add so much detail! It’s great to hear you’ve enjoyed working at YPO and it is good to hear you have learned to set boundaries for yourself. YPO is in a season of change with our technology platforms, our brand identity, our organizational aspirations and more. YPO supports our members through our mission of “Better Leaders Through Lifelong Learning and Idea Exchange.” which means there is always room for evolution and innovation. Thank you for your feedback!

Pros

The volunteers are engaged and care about the mission of YPO.

Cons

Leadership rebranded to YPO and YPO Gold without truly understanding the ramifications for the constituents over age 50 and their opportunities to remain engaged at a high level. C-Suite is fascinated with the idea of sharing their "story", which is basically a feel-good soliloquy that spins why they and YPO are so passionate and caring. It is manipulative and unauthentic.

Thank you for your feedback and insights. Like every organization, YPO is not the environment for everyone. YPO has over 25,000 members across the globe who passionately volunteer their time, talents and leadership to their peers and the organization as a whole. Members from both YPO and YPO Gold chapters were involved in the development of the strategy for both the Lifelong Leadership and Learning and the rebranding. These are exciting times that naturally bring about stress from changes while delivering top programs to the YPO membership. We appreciate your thoughts and are sorry your experience was not a positive one overall.

Pros

Learned a lot and the people I worked with great! Good benefits.

Cons

No training program whatsoever. No communication. Unorganized. Run employees into the ground. Do not compensate for work load
