Poor Work Culture Worse Leadership - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Casey Family Programs: Mitarbeiterbewertung

The people at Casey make the organization a great place to work. Committed, smart, diverse and compassionate the teams are all dedicated to building communities of hope across the country

It is a small organization so upward mobility is limited

Casey’s been around since 1966 (stability). Good benefits (including a sabbatical every ten years). If you’re a quiet “yes-man” or “yes-woman” you’ll be fine here.

Casey’s been around since 1966 (stagnation). Casey exists today as much to pay highly compensated executive staff and a bloated director-level class as it does to impact foster care. Do look up the Board of Trustees, CEO, CFO and Executive Vice President salaries -- as well as how Casey spends its endowment; this information is posted publicly due to Casey’s tax-exempt status. Simply Google “Casey Family Programs Form 990-PF” and the year that interests you. Highly compensated board of trustees that’s treated to expensive retreats and trips (why can’t/won’t Casey find a volunteer board of trustees?) No leadership, just status quo management. Highly compensated decision-makers (no one’s really sure what they do; they certainly don’t innovate). In other words, there are no effective checks and balances on those in power at Casey; at the “top” of the hierarchy, people are not held accountable and those at the top always rate each other’s performances highly. Old-fashioned/dated everything (communication/design, structure, “culture”). Avoid Indian Child Welfare section (a Casey afterthought and dead end – do good work in support of indigenous children and families elsewhere). Finally: I’d never recommend anyone take a job at Casey unless they desperately needed money. If you’re mission-driven, find an organization that really does the hard work Casey claims it does.
