Pros

Amazing supportive managments, the best I have ever had in 8 years of working If you can graduate you can progress up the ranks if you put in the work Lovely team Good pay Incredible opportunity to go to things like festivals and awesome events

Cons

Its fundraising, its high stress and you need to be able to keep up with targets and keep you mindset up but if you can its an incredibly rewarding job where your helping people every day Its not an easy job, you aproaching people all day for hours and a lot of the time you will get rejected and people can be rude

Pros

working with people who really care about the work and the mission; mostly remote work

Cons

Oxfam America's senior leadership team has presided over three consecutive years of layoffs with little evidence of accountability or learning at the executive level. Despite repeated rhetoric about fairness and equity, leadership decisions consistently undermine those stated values. New initiatives are rolled out frequently, only to be quietly dropped, creating instability, confusion, and deep skepticism among staff. Directors are routinely excluded from key strategic discussions, yet are expected to deliver decisions to their teams with no meaningful context, rationale, or ability to answer questions. The CEO appears insulated from the day to day realities of the organization, reinforcing a growing disconnect between leadership and staff. As a result, employees are chronically overworked, morale continues to erode, and trust in senior leadership has been significantly damaged by unmet commitments and constantly shifting priorities.
