Pros

Your work contributes to a great cause.

Cons

No growth opportunities in this role; will try to position it as 'lateral movement' but is the same role across the board. Working under a supervisor who knows shockingly little about the program. Working under a supervisor who will not take accountability or give even the smallest acknowledgement that there has been wrongdoing even when brought to the supervisor's attention. Working in a department that is paid very little attention to by upper management. Working in an organization with no dedicated Human Resources department.

Pros

Location is easily accessible by TTC

Cons

Weak culture, nepotism is rife, staff are not at all enthused. Poor model, awful relationships with many affiliates. Many, many people work there are low performers, but if you're friends with the right people that's ok. The values of Habitat for Humanity do not factor into how staff are treated, or how staff behave. If you want to do little more than collect a pay check, this is the place for you. If you want success, progress and inspiration - go anywhere else.

Pros

Few and getting a lot fewer.

Cons

Management fires on a whim. Not even remotely the "good people" they love to pass themselves off as. Give it a try, if you think I'm exaggerating...
