Huge disparity in working culture between “upstairs and downstairs” Diversity is very poor and if your personality isn’t aggressive/pushy you won’t get on.
Old fashioned management styles, managers only interested in themselves, never take time to say thanks for hard work etc, often don’t even bother to say good morning.
Keep employees in the dark about most things, communication very poor, lots of finding out information second or third hand rather than direct.
Lack of interest/guidance in personal development so high staff turnover. Generally low engagement and motivation in NPO and nothing being done to improve this. Keep making pointless new rules and attitude is very much “if you don’t like it leave, you can be replaced”. Small or no bonuses, very hush hush about bonuses and pay. Little opportunity for developing/progressing within department.
