Pluspunten

Great knowledgeable staff, great mission, flexible to work at home or in office, get to work with a lot of other local groups in coalitions

Minpunten

Lots of travelling, doing things beyond what your position is, not a lot of team-effort (must be able to work individually)

Thank you for your feedback and taking the time to provide your important thoughts. I appreciate your positive reflection on the great staff working at PennFuture, our critical mission, and the great benefits PennFuture offers, including flexible work scheduling. It's never been a more important time to work to protect Pennsylvania's environment and I'm proud of the team we have and the work they're doing. I have a few thoughts after reading you're review: You are correct - working at a small non-profit like PennFuture requires travel and, often times, working outside of your normal day-to-day activities. With staff and expertise spread around the state in 4 (soon to be 5!) offices, it takes everyone pitching in to reach our goals and achieve success. Sometimes that means working on a project that you may not have worked on before or pushing your experience and expertise in different directions. Like many small non-profits, we wouldn't be able to achieve our mission in any other way. Also, I agree that supervisors should lead and I'll go a step farther and say they should also be visionary. Given the dramatic environmental issues impacting PennFuture, we need leaders now more than ever. Since coming on as Vice President and Chief of Staff in late 2017, I've implemented a number of changes in an effort to elevate leadership, including creating a Senior Staff team that meets weekly to discuss strategy and internal issues, oversaw a staff-generated strategic planning process to re-energize the organizations strategies and tactics (completed in March 2018), and implemented the first-ever regular and systematic staff performance review process that includes salary increases and bonuses. More can, and will, be done to reward and foster leadership and I would appreciate hearing more as well as any ideas you may have to continue this process.
