What a disappointment

Pros

remote work, many paid holidays

Cons

Working at the Public Health Institute (PHI) was a disappointing experience marred by a toxic, non-inclusive culture. The organization fosters cliques, leaving newcomers feeling ostracized and unwelcome. Remote work is poorly executed due to a lack of understanding of the effective use of available technology. Managers offer zero feedback, instead displaying indifference and even disdain towards employees. Overall, PHI fails to provide a supportive and inclusive work environment, making it a place to avoid for those seeking professional growth and respect.

Pros

Flexibility working from home, 403b contribution of 10%

Cons

You don’t feel like you’re part of a greater organization- their effort to retain a company culture going remote has been really bad. It took them 2 years to actually have online events where people could connect. They are at least trying now though. Difficult to move up. Raises are capped. Benefits have not pivoted since remote change- so employees lost some benefits going remote and they were not replaced by anything. PHI doesn’t pay during maternity leave which feels hypocritical for public health (with multi-million dollar programs).
