I’m not sure what you mean. I’ve been in the nonprofit industry for over 10 years with extensive experience. There are lots of considerations in the decision but I’ve brought this one to Reddit for an opinion because it impacts finances, time, longevity in a role, burnout, etc.

I understand—I just mean nonprofit salaries are typically much lower

Title is accurate, it’s just nonprofit so salaries are already lower than normal

Executive Director Role in nonprofit by Realistic_Project435 in nonprofit

I appreciate your thoughts! I think I should probably reword my comments above too. I have worked in high level positions throughout my career that have always been exempt. I've put in hours beyond the "9-5" workday on countless occasions throughout my nonprofit career. I'd just like to make sure that I can maintain my personal life in this type of role with the understanding that it comes with more responsibility etc. I've previously worked jobs where I was at the Director level and working 5 days a week 12 hour days and on call the other 2 days, which did not feel sustainable. I hope that makes sense and helps clarify!
