Could be an adjustment for someone who has not worked for an organizaiton with a billable hours structure, must have an oganized way of planning and carrying out your work

Thank you for your feedback and support of our work. We are only as good as the people who we work with, our community. I feel very lucky that I can work with you and your colleagues. Needless to say it's been a crazy year, but we have been successful together and am looking forward to the great things we can accomplish in 2021. As I've written before, the professional services industry may not be for everyone, but you if you want to be helping to transform government, foundations, and nonprofit organizations cross country-this is a great spot to be in. So many exciting things going on. More advice and great ideas are so appreciated. Thank you again.

Pros

VERY talented and mission-driven colleagues who care deeply about the impact of their work. Employees are given opportunities to contribute meaningful work, collaborate across teams, and develop professionally.

Cons

Internal communication and role clarity could be stronger. As the organization has evolved, some processes and expectations have not always kept pace, occasionally creating confusion about priorities and decision-making. Also, if you are not familiar with billable hours environments, do your homework before stepping into this space.
