The Boston Foundation Reviews

The office is pretty siloed by department, and even within each department by team, and has a very corporate atmosphere in general. This not only affects culture building, but also communication. For the most part everyone is friendly and cordial, but there are some people don't even say hi to you when they pass you in the hall. Seems to be a bit cliquey too. Top management doesn't reflect the communities that the Foundation serves very well either - they're 99% older and white. There are the token minorities at the top level, but not nearly as diverse as it should be for an organization that claims to have Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as part of its core values.

Huge culture of perfectionism and power hoarding, ageism and sexism. There is also an insane amount of turn over because of how toxic the organization is. There is no growth or leadership development , with a hierarchal org structure that stifles creativity, and lacks transparency. Junior staff are treated horribly because managers at this place have no experience actually managing and supporting their subordinates, and the only way you can receive any level of agency and leadership is if your manager isn’t threatened by you. Oh and be prepared to not receive any onboarding support when you start… you’ll just have to figure it out on your own!
