Development Department is a Mess! - Development Professional National Jewish Health Employee Review

Business Outlook

Pros

NJH does great things for people who suffer from respiratory illnesses.

Cons

If you are a fundraiser/development professional, STEER CLEAR of the development department at NJH. The development department has no idea what they are doing and their poisonous behavior spread like wild fire all the way down to the entire department. When something goes wrong, the development executives will blame their subordinates and then the subordinates will blame their subordinates. It’s a vicious cycle and the back stabbing is the worst I have ever seen here! To top that off, absolutely no strategy as to how to increase donors and money. So much money is wasted sending people all around the country on “cold” leads. Just such a lack of vision.
