As a first-timer pitching in, I was greeted with open arms by the event staff and chefs. They were incredibly friendly and helpful, making sure I knew the ropes without ever feeling lost. Meeting with talented chefs and supporting a good cause made the whole experience awesome for me. Overall, it was a blast, and I’m totally up for volunteering with Sprouts again!
Cons
The hardest part of the event? Trying not to stare too obviously at those amazing plates of food! Nevertheless, observing the chefs craft their culinary wonders was an absolute delight.
Environment that encourages you to share your viewpoint - its is valuable and factored into the decisions made by management. Ability to take ownership of projects, lead teams, and direct the trajectory of my work / career (with support from management). Ability to directly impact people's lot / lives. Other non-profits talk the big talk, but you can see direct, correlated results.
Cons
Salary is good but when compared to nearby tech companies - well - there's a trade-off. I like what I did and the people I interacted with - that was enough for me.
