"There's way more work than we could ever complete, which makes work-life balance hard. It also means I don't want to move up because I don't want to work 100 hours a week. However, my coworkers are amazing, and my boss is a huge supporter of professional development and cross-training staff. It's a great learning environment. Additionally, the mission of the nonprofit is very close to my heart; what we do for folks is phenomenal."
