Pluspunten
Flexibility and some good people for the most part.
Minpunten
Compensation is practically unlivable in a city like Nashville. Especially with the benefit package, or lack there of. While benefits are technically offered, the out-of-pocket cost is nearly double what you’d expect elsewhere. Over the past 2.5 years, there’s been a consistent and visible decline in both staff and congregation. Staff turnover has been alarmingly high—at a rate that would be unsustainable in most other sectors. Most recently, layoffs have begun. Morale is low as low as it can get, and it feels like leadership is actively contributing to the organization’s decline rather than trying to course-correct. It’s hard to watch.
