Pluspunten

Oxfam's very much on a par with the other major aid agencies as a place to work. There are a wealth of international postings for those with the opportunities to take them. The atmosphere is consistently warm and friendly.

Minpunten

The opportunities for career progression are limited for those without a huge amount of pre-existing experience. There is too much bureaucracy, excessive meetings and not as much dynamism as one sees in the private sector.

Pluspunten

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.
