Rotary reviews

Claim to offer generous pay but it is below market. If you ask, they claim there is a company they use to tell them what a position is worth, but they won’t share information about what your job is being compared against or anything. Zero salary transparency even if you’re applying internally. You could complete the interview process only to then be told the salary is less than you’re currently making. Very little room for growth unless you want to apply to be on a different team/department. Promotions are pretty much nonexistent. I know people who have been here for 10+ years and have never been promoted within their role despite continuous positive performance reviews. Depending on your department it can be extremely toxic and draining. Managers and supervisors are not given proper training on how to manage people. There is a significant lack of support from the top of the organization if your department isn’t considered a priority. There was an open position on my team for over 10 months and the director of my department would not allow it to be reposted. Then I ended up doing that job on top of mine. I became so burnt out that I started taking more wellness days. Then after taking maybe 8 in 5-6 months I got an email warning about taking too many. Communications from members of the People and Talent (HR) team can be very dismissive, abrasive, and tone deaf. For example, when asking about the IL state law requiring companies to reimburse a portion of employees home internet usage when required to work from home, I was informed by HR that I could “choose not to work and not get paid.” Overall the organization is way too volunteer driven. This causes priorities and strategy to shift yearly. Will put resources into all the stuff these high up volunteers want, but can’t pay staff decent salaries or give them more than a 3% cost of living raise each year.
