Great to work with - werkgeversreview Campaign Associate bij Work for Progress

Really flexible and amazing people

Long-hours and hard to find times that work

Their campaigns work on important causes, and winning a campaign is a good thing for people and the country.

This organization, and many of the other organizations within the public interest network, have a really hard time with employee retention when it comes to the canvass director and campaign organizer roles. In a lot of cases you end up working so many hours per week it works out to be less than a minimum wage salary. In many cases the canvassers that you hire as a director, make more an hour than you do. There are a few situations involving canvasser's concerns/safety that were not handled well by higher management in my opinion. I also feel that you are very much just a number in the overall organization of the team. When myself and others raised concerns or decided to quit because we were uncomfortable with the way things were done, the management seemed more than willing to drop us and find the next person who would be willing to blindly follow their game plan. Because of that, I really didn't feel valued.
