United Way reviews

- Overly concerned about attire (some guests/visitors shared that it felt like a fashion show) - Feeling of inequity between departments (downstairs vs upstairs, development vs programs). - Slow and unclear decision-making protocols; you may get approval for something from location/person a only to realize - Pay was pretty low - high employee turnover - Regardless of workload, overtime wasn't allowed (even though many people did).

Staff parties have gone from amazing evening open bar, dancing and dinners to a holiday lunch. Benefits have been cut back. I was told my job was being eliminated after being there 21 years. They were creating a new position at a higher, management level that was analytical so this was their excuse to get rid of me because they had nothing to fire me for. They did get a new position filled but not until 2 months later and that was with an internal person who was already there. One week after I left on my own and got a great job elsewhere, they posted my same exact job at a lower salary level. They clearly want younger people who will work for less money. I busted my butt working day and night to keep up with the tasks they put on me. I didn’t ask for extra pay, as I was hourly but I just wanted to keep my job and do my best. Staff looked to me for advice and we all got along great. Management are totally phony. They promote their favorites even if they do nothing extra to deserve it. Management keeps getting promoted themselves and take credit for the work that the staff does with barely a thank you.
