Pluspunten

Great chance to experience working at the hub of an international NGO. Lots of travel opportunities. Lots of opportunities to work with people around the world. Friendly working culture (at least it was when I was there), with social events. Laid back dress code.

Minpunten

Very process orientated. Difficult to 'get things done' due to onerous sign-off procedures. Very administrative and far removed from the field work on the ground. Lack of middle ranking jobs, so can be difficult to progress and be promoted.

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.
