Pluspunten

The admin and professional level employees that I knew while working there were thoughtful, caring people. The work environment (dress code) is casual, depending on the team a person is on the work environment will be change but in general if a person needs to work from home they can. Benefits and PTO were very generous.

Minpunten

The salary for administrative employees is not a liveable wage. The senior management is an incredibly privileged lot who seem to be entirely out of touch with the company the day to day lives of the people Oxfam serves and their coworkers in lower positions. They are outrageously overpaid. If you are at the beginning of your career you will not grow at Oxfam, this is a place to land while you continue your job search, if you are a a specialist in a humanities field then you might just luck out and get hired and make bank. Anyone below a specialist position is treated like a dumb child while handling a major amount of tasks. Misuse of donor funds.

working with people who really care about the work and the mission; mostly remote work

Minpunten

Oxfam America's senior leadership team has presided over three consecutive years of layoffs with little evidence of accountability or learning at the executive level. Despite repeated rhetoric about fairness and equity, leadership decisions consistently undermine those stated values. New initiatives are rolled out frequently, only to be quietly dropped, creating instability, confusion, and deep skepticism among staff. Directors are routinely excluded from key strategic discussions, yet are expected to deliver decisions to their teams with no meaningful context, rationale, or ability to answer questions. The CEO appears insulated from the day to day realities of the organization, reinforcing a growing disconnect between leadership and staff. As a result, employees are chronically overworked, morale continues to erode, and trust in senior leadership has been significantly damaged by unmet commitments and constantly shifting priorities.
