Pros

The former president and co-CEO is gone! The longtime founder and a new president, who is great, have taken over leadership.

Cons

I was just reading about the ouster of Ben Jealous at the Sierra Club and I felt like I was reading about FoodCorps under the former co-CEO. Fortunately, his departure was not public like Jealous’s but the former co-CEO at FC wreaked the same kind of havoc and unhappiness. The org is still recovering from that but is mostly there because the founder and new president are both awesome.

Pros

Loved every part of working here - the mission, the people, the remote work culture.

Cons

Honestly hard to think of cons other than the federal funding issues that were out of their control.

Pros

Great pay and benefits compared to other AmeriCorps programs. The day to day experience varies from site to site but I had a very flexible schedule and self directed days which I found very nice. I got a lot of great professional experience.

Cons

FoodCorps is definitely going through some growing pains after losing their AmeriCorps grant and significant layoffs.
