Terrible work culture - Administrative Assistant bei Promises2Kids: Mitarbeiterbewertung

I worked at Promises for over 2 years and was always impressed by their ability to serve the youth and pivot as needed to meet their needs. The organization is fast paced which may not be a fit for everyone, but the mission is at their core. It is definitely a place where you can grow and learn because you are involved in many areas of the non profit. The CEO is always willing to get involved to support directly with youth activities or philanthropic effort. She definitely has a vision for growth, but always with children at heart.

Some people might not like the fast paced nature or the need to work during off hours at donor and youth events.

An amazing cause!! The organization's budget has grown exponentially in the past few years, allowing P2K to impact large amounts of foster youth in positive ways. The programs, the cause and the good they are doing in the world is commendable.

There is a serious disconnect between programs and development. Very little collaboration or communication between the two departments. Terrible supervision, one co-worker admitted she didn't know who to report to for the first few weeks (turns out it was the CEO). I was given a misleading job offer and when I tried to schedule meetings with the CEO she flat out rejected- when I finally got her attention by getting outside parties involved, the CEO decided to fire me and protect the supervisor- nobody ever took responsibility for the misinformation or the fact that my responsibilities had nothing to do with the job description I was offered. Salary and resource gaps between development and programs employees- all development employees get standing desks, private offices and personal printers while programs shares the office printer. All employees expected to work overtime without compensation. No flex hours. CEO unapproachable.
