Employer Type: Non-Profit Organization (United States)

If you are thinking of joining a not for profit organization in a career change, know one thing. You will not be paid what you feel you are worth unless you land in an executive level job. Those types are generally OVER paid. But, there are a lot of wonderful perks/benefits. Shorter work week (generally 35 hours full time) lots of paid time off and good medical benefits.

The money stinks but the work is rewarding and the benefits can't be beat!

The best benefit is medical insurance. Why? I am a diabetic. On my previous job I had no medical insurance and spent more time off because of lack of meds. I have med insurance now, which is wonderful. There is no "worst benefit." A benefit is always better than what you had. The pros of working where I am are the benefits, work schedule, bonus and communite. The cons could only be the excessive work load because of lack of finances to hire more employees. Thus, I produce the workload of 3 people.
