I second the last comment. This charity is trying to do amazing work for some of the most disadvantaged people in south wales; sometimes against all the odds. It's not afraid to try new things and listen to ideas from staff and the people who use the services, OK - sometimes things do get difficult, and money isn't always secure (everyone knows that times are difficult for charities in a recession) but all in all a good bunch of people trying to make a difference.
One problem is that you don't get the kind of perks that you might do in the public sector - e.g. final salary pensions - but they try and help with family-friendly policies instead. But I guess it's about whether you want to try and make a difference. Some politician recently said that bankers are socially useless, so its nice to be working in an area that helps people who've had a bad deal in life.
I've tried to be realistic with the ratings - most people don't go into charity work, social services etc. for the money - so I've put this in context with similar types of work.

As a current employee who started off 7 years ago as a part time project worker, and who is not afraid to use his real name to rate Cyrenians Cymru, I have found working with the Cyrenians has afforded me a range of experiences and training opportunities that very few companies in the private or public sector would offer. They have shown compassion and enabled me to work flexibly when family illness required. They have fought tooth and nail to ensure a future for the organisation by accessing new and alternative funding streams and it is to their credit that the organisation is now about to launch several new exciting schemes that will benefit the most vulnerable members of our community.
