Black CEO, Racism

Anonymous employee

Pros

Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Racism thrives. There are literally hundreds of complaints settled out of court for racial discrimination against Black & Hispanic employees. If you're White, you will be fine. There are lots of you there being promoted. If you're a minority, forget about promotions and get a good race discrimination attorney.

Good Mission; Lost its Way

Pros

Protecting older Americans; AARP is only NGO strong enough to protect social security and medicare. Great salaries and benefits.

Cons

Inwardly focused; staff at all levels from analysts to senior executives are very focused on protecting their own jobs because of the great salaries and benefits. Organization spends more time and energy and meetings on its revenue and membership than it does on policy and advocacy designed to protect those same members.

Pros

Relatively good pay and benefits. The organization is oftentimes collegial with good opportunities to learn new skills if you are driven to navigate the internal politics

Cons

Oftentimes unnecessarily bureaucratic to the extent decisions take a very long time, all too frequent reorganizations, overly meeting centric, and way too many internal reporting requirements.
