Pros

Inclusive work environment, meaningful work

Generally disorganized. Lead Director claims undue credit for ideas and achievements of others, shifting blame for their shortcomings. Pay is low, benefits are okay.

Fun job, spoiled by upper management

Assistant canvass director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good money for what it is! I enjoyed working outside and meeting new people every single day.

Cons

Hours are tough. Upper management ranges from incompetent to downright malignant. In weekly all-director meetings, canvassers (i.e. the people who actually make this company run) are talked about in abhorrently demeaning terms. Turn over rate is insane and the company has zero will to fix this, which leads to an unstable-feeling work environment. The only people who are treated with any sort of respect at all are the brass in Denver.
