Former Employee – worked at Dare Mighty Things
Pros – Really bright, talented, committed team. Great contracts serving national nonprofits with Federal grants to serve low-income communities and at-risk youth.
Cons – The leadership is conservative, politically and culturally. But most staff are progressive. so, it's a funny, tense mix, at times. People work very, very hard.
Advice to Senior Management – Learn to trust. Listen to the team's desire to network on behalf of the company without having them jump through hoops.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
