I worked for a non-profit for my first job - it was nice in a lot of ways, it was a zero pressure environment, no crunch time and a lot of spend time learning at your speed.

The decision making was experiment with different technologies, figure out how to get them to work, and determining whether it was scalable.

Thanks Bahamut - Did you bring ideas to the decision makers based on a need you saw at the nonprofit or did they approach you with something to look into?
I experimented more - I was very junior back then, so I had a lot to learn. I didn't really have anything to do with the decision making.
