Pros
United Way has a great foundation as to how it is meant to help its community however in San Angelo, TX that is not the case I would encourage you to give directly to the Non-profits you would like to help. That will certainly have a greater impact.
Cons
The current CEO boasts about firing people immediatley without warning. This office went from eight employees and a CEO that had local relationships. To an out of town CEO that terminated all eight and currently has a staff of two including herself. If your political views do not match up you will be terminated. CEO inflates numbers to the board of directors that have really no idea what is happening at the office. The chair for determining allocations is strong armed into how the CEO feels allocations should be dispersed to local partnering non-profits. Not what the United Way is designed!

- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I had a great manager and that made a big difference for me. He was not a micro-manager and was very supportive.
Cons
Leadership. Some leadership had been there for ages and was very resistant to change/hearing ideas. I saw a lot of bad management and a lot of friends quit because of the culture/their managers.
