American Red Cross

Is this your company?

I was proud to say, "I'm going to work at the Red Cross." Not what I expected .... - Anonymous employee American Red Cross Employee Review

Pros

Brand name of the organization and what the mission seemingly is

Cons

People have been here so long that they do not have innovation or energy. My job is not what was discussed during the interviews. In fact, there was a switcheroo after I started which is incredibly unprofessional and speaks to weak organization and communication skills. I resent that my job was handed to somebody with less experience. Though it has a feel good mission statement, it is still your run of the mill corporation. I'd rather go to a corporation and earn more, than put up with this complacency and bureaucracy of a not-for-profit corporation which practices a corporate culture. Anybody notice the demographics of the Board or senior management? I see very few people of color in senior roles. I also see promotions being handed out quickly to caucasians vs. people of color. I've been here a few months and very dissatisfied with my experience.

Great benefits (PTO, Work-life balance, Medical, Dental, Vision insurance)

Inexperienced management and directors. Oftentimes, long term staff would train leadership.
