Pluspunten

Great pay, good benefits (if you stay long enough to get them--you have to wait TWO MONTHS?!?!?! to get your health insurance, etc.), you only have to work 4 days a week minimum for full time, you can get bonuses depending on how much you raise, and it's a fun job.

Minpunten

Stressful, bosses were abusive (one more than the other...shout out to the good cop, bad cop routine), we didn't get benefits until after we had worked with them for two months, which is a long time when you're waiting for health insurance...bosses are not understanding at all when you have a very serious illness. I came down with pneumonia, which got as bad as it did because they refused to let me take one day off to rest when I told them I was getting sick. (Not only was it pneumonia, it was double pneumonia with pleurisy caused by pleural effusion.) Then when I had to take a week off to recover, I was told I had to come back by a certain day or I would be fired. I came back to work that day, but I was still sick for about a week later. (BTW, it's been over a month and I STILL have fluid in my lungs.) The directors will berate you for the smallest mistake. They will pressure you to raise money on a bad day and then fire you for signing yourself up to donate, even though you didn't know it was against the rules (because their onboarding documentation is a joke). Stay away.

Fun laid-back work environment. Working for a good cause and helping make an impact in the community.

Minpunten

Door-to-door canvassing in the winter is pretty miserable.

Pluspunten

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

Minpunten

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.
