I work for a non-profit, and have found a very good place where we are treated well and where I can work on mostly interesting stuff mostly in the ways that seem best to me (not all non-profits are like this, for sure) -- and also make probably 1/2 to 1/3rd (or less?) what some of you make.
- specproc 10mo agoI worked for non-profits my whole career, and the hiring scene is completely fucked right now. I've never, in nearly 20 years in the sector, been unemployed for more than a few months at a time. It's been a year, half my LinkedIn contacts are also looking for work. Cannot recommend non-profits at the moment.
- parpfish 10mo agoI took a 66% pay cut to work at a nonprofit once, and it was hell. The problem is that not many folks are willing to take a pay cut like that, so the level of employee talent was abysmal. Years and years of the “Dead Sea” effect made it a thoroughly incompetent work environment where they were oblivious to how bad it was because the managers had never seen what’s real job was like before
- jrochkind1 10mo agoYeah, I've experienced a couple different kinds of non-profit hell, but been lucky enough to find a good place. So maybe it's no easier to find a good place in nonprofits than anywhere else, I dunno!
