Great Mission, Quality Work, OK Work Environment - Manager Wolf Trap Foundation Employee Review

Pros

As a performing arts organization, they really do care about the quality of the work, and are doing a better job at bringing in new, diverse performers. The people who work there really do care about the mission, and in providing a quality experience for the community. The Barns is a hidden gem.

Cons

Here's what I will say: they're trying. But it took a while for this to happen. Benefits are decent, but salaries are low. The amount of expected output is high. HR is not great at resolving problems, unless it's something they can't ignore. Hopefully that is changing. There's a lot that needs to be done to reach out to audiences outside of Nova. Some members of upper mgmt are stuck in their ways, and not always respectful of their employees. Not a place to advance - so a decent place to be short term, but don't expect to be there long term, if career advancement/salary increases are impt to you.

Pros

Very pretty office, flexible schedule (hybrid, 2 days in office per week)

Cons

Not much, I guess don't expect to get rehired for a full-time position here? They don't have a lot of openings and the pay is definitely below market.
