A lot of work without any return - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Executive Director

A lot of work and hours put in without a lot of reward in return. Benefits - really lacking in what they offer employees, although they think they have great offerings. HR does not support staff what so ever. They are there only as a formality. The management style for clients is odd. There is one person in charge of a lot of moving parts and is not always there for support. Consulting partners have final say. Therefore executive directors that should have the ability to make decisions, don't. However, the people within the executive director position have really only been put there because they are amicable and willing to go along with what is dictated to them from the partner level. They lack the experience and ability to manage staff accordingly and that only funnels down through all of the positions below them. Constant turn over in staff is frustrating for those wanting to continue in their positions. A lot of duties are delegated to current staff and they are never recognized or compensated for those extra duties. No long term vision for staff that could be an asset to management. You may be promoted and you may receive more responsibility, but you will always be seen as replaceable and someone younger who requires less money will always be around to take your place. If you're not interested in becoming an executive director at some point, you will not have the ability to grow within the company. Any other interest is seen as not worthy of focus and will not be rewarded in any way.
