Major Gifts Leadship is Wretched - Development Director CARE (USA) Employee Review

Pros

Great people other that some severe southern racism at the top and a horrific Major Gifts leadership.

Cons

Run don’t walk away from CARE if you are thinking of working in Major Gifts. The leadership are self-serving, ladder climbing cads who belong in trading floor sales. They care nothing about supporting the work or staff, rather keep reorganizing to increase their personal power and incomes. Truly, ask any of the 15+ people who have left in the last few years, the majority of which are people of color. It is a toxic racist team. Don’t just take it from me. Reach out to almost any former team members you can find on LinkedIn. They will say the exact same thing.

Pros

My coworkers were great and I had the opportunity to travel to different countries and see the work CARE was doing in person, great way to learn about the world and different cultures. The overall mission of the org is great and the programs implemented are actually making a huge impact on people lives around the world. Benefits (PTO, 401K, etc) are pretty good as well.

Cons

You're expected to always work overtime and not complain and if you set healthy boundaries then you're not seen as a "team player". The processes are broken and the attempts to fix them are short lived. There are too many cooks in the kitchen when it came to final reviews, usually extending the life of a project by weeks because one person didn't like one specific detail. The diversity in the marketing team is significantly lacking considering the org is focused on supporting international voices and stories. Upper management doesn't have much respect for anyone under a director level. HR is unhelpful and messy. For an org that pushes a message of diversity and belonging, the employees are treated MUCH differently which is extremely disappointing.
