Hi, thank you for your feedback. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Human Capital staff or our executive office if you have specific concerns or questions about your position and work environment. As you may be aware, we have taken steps in recent years to evaluate and improve our pay practices, as well as address other concerns that were raised through employee feedback. In relationship to pay, we use a number of factors to determine pay level, such as experience, education, and internal equity. Because our offices are older buildings, we recognize that some areas are darker due to the configurations. We are a nonprofit organization and use our donors’ contributions wisely, so of course we do not have lavish buildings or accommodations; but we do want to make sure the work space we have is as attractive and appealing as possible to our staff. We have been working over the past few years to update and make changes that improve the space at both of our locations. As you may know, we are planning to move the downtown D.C. office next summer, which will result in a much more modern work space for the staff in that location and for visiting staff. We are certainly open to other ideas, if you have any suggestions for how we can make other changes, so please reach out!

Pros

The mission - of course. Remote work Benefits are decent

Cons

Favoritism - people get promoted because they are friends with someone or because they are appropriately performative. Inept leadership - Very few of the people managers know how to manage people and/or business process. No strategic leadership - we have a mission, but the strategy doesn't trickle down to those doing the work. Siloed - Departments don't work together. It is common for other departments or even individuals in your own department to sabotage or undermine your work. Zero transparency - The Board is a mysterious entity that no one understands. C Suite doesn't communicate down. The C suite itself doesn't work with its members. Everyone is doing their own thing. C suite is disconnected from the real work. The C-suite micromanages and discounts the expertise of its team. Operationally deficient - very few business processes, no clear roles and responsibilities, top heavy, slow to no decision-making. My concerned with performative measures and optics.
