The leadership at this organization is inept - there is really no other way to say it. In lieu of ever planning/making decisions ahead of time, they carom wildly from one position to another in order to appease the uninformed and context-free opinions of whichever board member/VP/donor they spoke to most recently. The work of making this happen, of course, falls on their staff, who are routinely gaslit into thinking that "this is just what happens in the entertainment industry" when in fact it is just their indecisiveness. As staff members here, we are told regularly that it is an organizational value to "assume best intentions" but that, in practice, is only applicable in the instance of lower-level staff accepting poor treatment/disrespect from their superiors. Any feedback from the staff that is not a personal compliment is completely ignored out of hand. When staff push back on being asked to go against best practice or against the general working conditions, those staff members are derided or written off as unreasonably disgruntled and their concerns are cast aside. I cannot emphasize this enough - if you are considering accepting a job offer from this organization, do NOT accept it. If you are a competent professional, you ARE going to be miserable here. You can expect to be underpaid/overworked (as I have already mentioned) as well as regularly undermined in your attempts to do even the most basic parts of your job. You WILL be told that your experience, when it contradicts the Leadership team's misconception of themselves as brilliant, is invalid. I am not saying this because I am frustrated (although I am) - I am saying that this WILL happen, I guarantee it, and I can make that guarantee because I have seen it happen time and again to co-workers, mentors, colleagues, and friends.
