    Don't join this company if you want a decent income, an intellectually stimulating job and career opportunities

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Management, co-workers and volunteers are generally friendly.

    Cons

    Management is not clear they do not talk to each other which reduces clarity between restore locations. There is very limited growth opportunity. You will be stuck doing countless manual labor tasks that often endanger your safety (lifting very heavy items) and not get paid enough for it. There is tight budgets within the company which reduces the amount of new positions that come up, and also makes it hard to get raises. My suggestion, don't join a non-profit unless you are okay with a relatively stagnant job and not enough pay.

    Pros

    The people, work atmosphere, and the ability to do good for the community.

    Cons

    The nature of a non-profit is to have a lot of different job responsibilities that would be served by having a larger staff. It can be overwhelming.
