Neurological Wellness Association

The money doesn't add up. Last year, they were making about $250,0000 a month, with no clear direction on how it was going. They keep repeating the same stories over and over with no updates. Their social media has comments turned off because of the complaints from people they support. They promise to fund low income sick and disabled people to get supplemental health care, but they do not come through. They say membership is free, but clients end up paying $50.
Payments come straight from the Executive Director's bank account. 
Office in Vancouver is a coworking space. 
This is a scam.

This job is great, you get to interact with great people and help a very worthy cause. The job differs every day. It gives great satisfaction knowing that you are helping people across Canada have access to healthcare that they normally wouldn't. 

The hardest part is being out side in all kinds of weather- from blazing hot summer days, to freezing winter days, but still worth it!

If you enjoy talking to people all day, being outside in varying weather conditions and working independently then this is perfect. You get to travel to different areas around you and see all sorts of different people. It can be long days if it’s a slow location, sometimes bookings can get messed up, but I think there are more positives than negatives

Great team and amazing management, great pay for what you do, and get to help out an amazing cause
You do occasionally have to work outside which isn’t bad as long as you prepare for the weather
Overall a very relaxed job and great for anyone who’s great at talking to people

This is a good company to put your foot in the door of the sales world, but don't stay too long.  Anyone who succeeds in this environment would do very well and be treated much better at another company.  The owner means well, but does not have the acumen to lead a sales team.  If you want to make a quick buck it is great, but don't expect job security.  Expect to work very hard and make an ok income.  

You have a large amount of flexibility as to what hours you work and how much you work. You are also helping those with neurological issues, this can be very rewarding when you speak to the families of people suffering from neurological issues.

I have worked for NWA for 5 years and had a wonderful experience. Management was so positive and the pay was excellent. Clients responded to fundraising with enthusiasm.

I give NWA a 10 for positive experience.

Owner hired friends to replace current loyal workers, even had current employee train his friend before letting go of employee without notice. Manager was great though.

Management is very accomodating which is nice. As long as you're doing a good job fundraising, schedule is relatively flexible. You do need to buy your own gear at the start though.

Fundraising and community enlightenment oriented job. Need to be a people person and have tremendous energy to be successful. Gives one a sense of fulfillment if you believe in the cause.
