Pluspunten

As an organization, HRF has a fantastic mission, and many wonderful, intelligent people work there. The majority of HRF's staff members are committed to advancing the rights of asylees, refugees, and immigrants around the world.

Minpunten

In spite of the fact that most employees are deeply committed to HRF's mission, this remains the worst place I have ever worked. Managers across the board are either ineffective (think: brilliant lawyers but not great managers) or abusive. The person I worked under belittled me, gossiped about me in the office, yelled at me and others (on one occasion, a volunteer sobbed because of this person's actions), and otherwise acted unprofessionally on a daily basis. They have since been promoted, and remain at HRF. It's shocking and sad that such a well-meaning organization continues to advance people that are toxic to work culture, and whose overall lack of management skill contributes to high turnover and the loss of good, driven employees. It's more shocking that repeated staff feedback on this issue has gone unheeded.

Pluspunten

The work helps people especially non-citizens

Minpunten

Absolutely atrocious senior management. They don’t seem to care that staff are working every single Saturday and Sunday and constantly staying late or logging on early just to keep up. Meanwhile, senior leadership gets holiday breaks and takes vacations while the rest of us can’t realistically use time off because the workload is so overwhelming. When they fire employees, they just expect everyone else to absorb the cases with no support. They keep talking about funding cuts, yet senior leadership is making $200k+ salaries and they even created another senior leadership position. It’s a horrible place to work. People should seriously consider other organizations instead.
