Pluspunten

• Work with quality people, carefully selected and trained to ensure quality work; • Able to work and contribute to interesting and meaningful projects that value my training in social science research; • Projects are carefully selected to ensure they are consistent with company values; • Sets the industry standard for corporate social responsibility, from projects selection to the selection of food vendors; • Open access to senior staff that share their wealth of experience and serve as mentors; • Straddles the worlds of philanthropy and Federal consulting, and does it well; • Focus on customer satisfaction, not a “churn-em and burn- em” shop; and • A true commitment to staff learning and continual improvement, great professional development benefits and support from senior staff.

Minpunten

As all growing companies tend to experience, staff resources become scarce during peak times of the year like proposal season and the end of the fiscal year. Back-ups are difficult to find which makes it challenging to complete deliverables, write proposals, and keep up-to-date on professional development.

Thank you for taking time to provide your review. I am thrilled to know that you see what we are trying to do come to life. It is very exciting. Our major challenge to improving work-life balance is not our size or growth directly, but the challenge is recruiting more smart, talented, and committed people to our company. We we are doing all we can and have positions opened, so hopefully the positive reviews of you and your colleagues will attract these people and we all will be better for it. Thanks again.

Thank you for your feedback and support of our work. We are only as good as the people who we work with, our community. I feel very lucky that I can work with you and your colleagues. Needless to say it's been a crazy year, but we have been successful together and am looking forward to the great things we can accomplish in 2021. As I've written before, the professional services industry may not be for everyone, but you if you want to be helping to transform government, foundations, and nonprofit organizations cross country-this is a great spot to be in. So many exciting things going on. More advice and great ideas are so appreciated. Thank you again.

Pluspunten

VERY talented and mission-driven colleagues who care deeply about the impact of their work. Employees are given opportunities to contribute meaningful work, collaborate across teams, and develop professionally.

Minpunten

Internal communication and role clarity could be stronger. As the organization has evolved, some processes and expectations have not always kept pace, occasionally creating confusion about priorities and decision-making. Also, if you are not familiar with billable hours environments, do your homework before stepping into this space.
