Almost No job progression opportunities - Fundraising Coordinator Muscular Dystrophy Association Employee Review

Pros

Daily duties vary and combine administrative and creative work

Cons

-large amount of cold-calling, and then re-chasing business executives during their work hours to check up on how much money they have raised! Coordinators are encouraged to use a 'jail lock-up' themed tone and messaging during these calls which feels both embarrassing and intrusive. Calls are extremely frequent - several times a week sometimes! -low salary - very little growth opportunity as the offices are small, and upper level positions are rare o come across

Mission driven, lots of flexibility and great relationships. The families and sponsors are amazing. The company continues to make changes that are beneficial to its employees.

National employees don't always have a good sense of what it's like in the field. Sometimes the cart is ahead of the horse.

Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback and support. We are continuing to move forward with implementing new and improved initiatives to benefit MDA employees. We understand your frustration of national staff not always fully understanding the important work the field does on a daily/hourly basis but are hopeful that this disconnect will continue to improve. If you have suggestions or concerns please reach out to your divisional HR Generalist, or use the anonymous suggestion box on Merlin. Thank you for all of the hard work you do!
