Pros

Great mission - at least the core of the program, not the 'possibility movement' branding that makes no sense. For a nonprofit, the pay is competitive (esp if you are the CEO making $200K+!!). I joined because of a regional leader who left. The org has been a disaster since she departed which is why I quickly moved on.

Kontras

Organization has poor senior management (CEOs, new regional EDs, no development leadership) and because of this, it has been slip sliding downward and I'm afraid Spark's days may be numbered. The organization is broke with no leadership or direction. If interviewing, make sure to ask pointed questions about org finances and job security. Wouldn't recommend joining unless you are okay with these risks.

Pros

-Lower level employees (folks running program) at this organization are the best. True to the title of this post, Spark attracts bright-eyed and hard-working people with passion to match. Not to say that there aren't individuals in management who aren't also like this, I'm just saying most of the organization's significant impact is generated by those who are actually with the kids/mentors. -Organization has great mission of wanting to work with youth and help them explore career paths. -Supportive and down-to-earth colleagues

Kontras

-I had a poor experience under my region's management. I didn't like to interact with my supervisor and I didn't feel like I could relax in the office. I didn't feel safe voicing feedback/opinions (unless it was to HR), even though the organization prides itself on having an open-door policy. There have been several occasions where my team members and I have even broken down, but I couldn't let on that I was unhappy because my supervisor made me feel like I was overly sensitive. Support from colleagues got me through everything. -Disorganized. Employees were held accountable for tasks not clearly communicated.
