Colleagues. Doing work that makes a difference.
Smartest people I've ever worked with.
They're committed to doing the right thing by kids.
Personable, committed, everyone knows the mission and is committed to it.
Transparent, highly communicative, accountable, know they have to model what they look for.
Met the people I'd be working with. Had a chance to really ask questions.
Improved diversity, but they've made a commitment to hiring remote staff to achieve that, which is what it takes when you're based in Portland.
Retirement. The org puts 15% of your salary into your 403b (non-profit version of 401K) every year even if you don't put anything in. And it vests in only three years.
