Obama Foundation Reviews

This organization has a very toxic workplace environment, and the leadership (including managers, directors, VP's, etc.) is very disorganized. They preach about morals and values but do not practice any of them in the org. Colleagues that have been there for more than 5 years have been jaded by the constant restructuring and do not earnestly work cooperatively with each other without scour. It is a very negative workplace and very hierarchal. If you do not hold a senior title, then you are not respected. There is a lot of gatekeeping, gaslighting, dismissive behavior, and there are too many managers that gossip. This was one of the worst job experiences that I have ever had, and am very disappointed in how this organization is lead. The Executive Leadership team is very indecisive and there are constant back-and-forth changes that affects everyone, but they care very little about the upset. There is also a huge divide between senior staff and junior staff because this organization unfortunately operates by high school politics and perceived popularity. You also have to watch out for working with a lot of egos and passive aggressive behavior. Leadership will make you over-work, and then have little appreciation for successful outcomes.

Toxic work environment - staff can’t trust management to look out for their best interests, benefits, or well being. Lack of diversity in middle management — many bosses will be white women.
