First, to clarify, volunteers at chapters are not employees of GLSEN. Like all nonprofits that have volunteers, there are guidelines and expectations on what we expect from volunteers but since volunteers are not paid staff of GLSEN, they don't actually "work" at GLSEN, full or part-time. What GLSEN does value is the time, energy and dedication that each volunteer contributes to our work and we always acknowledge and appreciate that dedication and hard work and GLSEN would not be able to accomplish what it does without the participation and support of all of our chapters and its volunteers.

Pluspunten

great work life balance and decent pay

Minpunten

this job was great until the org needed to navigate a fiscal cliff. a year after those layoffs, I'm still left wondering why the staff was handled the way they were. money issues are real, to be sure, but everything could have been handled far more humanely. the only thing that seems to make sense of the actions that followed was that senior leadership was devoid of any strategy for how to move forward and decided to spend their efforts preserving their own reputations. prior to the layoffs, it was a decent place to work if you could keep your head down and avoid getting caught up in the usually office politics of ego. can't really speak to what it might be like post-layoffs.

We’re very sorry to hear that your experience working at GLSEN wasn’t reflective of the work environment we strive to achieve. Layoffs due to financial constraints are never easy. As a nonprofit, we are subject to what the donor/funding landscape holds and as you know, we are living in a volatile and unfriendly political landscape that unfortunately created a situation that was untenable.
