Pros

Philadelphia Works is an organization where you can grow and develop if you so chose. The organization provides opportunities for professional development if the budget allows (we are funded by state and federal dollars) As in many companies we must do more with less but what an opportunity to expand your knowledge and skills. Most people are supportive and friendly. The CEO is a leader who expects alot out of his employees and expects twice as much from himself. He has lead Philadelphia Works into a leadership position within the workforce system. He is fair , ethical and honest . So what more can you ask for?

Cons

We are funded by state and federal dollars and we all know that those budgets fluctuate.

Pros

Healthy working environment, thought it varies across departments. Hybrid work structure allows for some flexibility with work and life balance. Work is meaningful and directly impactful.

Cons

At times hectic and leadership styles and effectiveness can vary from department to department. The organization is often understaffed and either work slows or staff take on some extra responsibilities. Not much opportunities for promotions.

Pros

PW pays well comparatively to most nonprofit orgs.

Cons

Mismanaged from the top down, most of leadership is out of touch with the work their teams accomplish. Poor planning leads to a never ending scramble to catch up.
