AARP reviews

takes so many approvals to get anything done, management is focused on furthering their own careers and not fulfilling "the mission." Extremely political internally and every person I know who has worked there for a long time hates it, but cannot leave because the benefits and pay are golden handcuffs. Long term, AARP's relevance is waning as they lose members due to people not wanting to be part of an "old person's" organization. They tolerate incompetence and those incompetent can bully those who are performing and it is tolerated. Hard to get promoted as no one ever leaves, also, because no one leaves

- Upper management was completely and deliberately insulated from taking feedback or even interacting with anyone. They're also completely clueless on how to run an organization, vet ideas or even basic business concepts - Mission is constantly thrown around, but few people actually care about serving seniors -- AARP is just a massive money-making scheme to take money from seniors and waste it on expensive gatherings, office space, and overpaid (incompetent) senior managers - Many of the main decision makers had very questionable ethics and regularly lied about both big and small things to all layers of the organization - There is no movement at all - laterally or vertically - for anyone (you can't rotate to other positions -- politics are toxic internally) - Facetime matters more than actually doing anything - Horrific politics from all levels -- the senior managers that last are the ones that play the game (keep head down, throw others under the bus, and agree to asinine ideas from clueless leaders)
