Great place to grow. - Project Manager Oxfam Employee Review

Loved my boss and she let me fly as high as I wanted to and made sure I always felt I had opportunities to explore all my interests. I felt like I was working on impactful projects and I got to interface with several different teams in different countries and work with them on their projects when they needed an extra hand. Also my boss let the job be as remote or in-person as I wanted.

The humanitarian sector in general can be very hard to work in since you deal with a lot of issues of human suffering and there's only so much you can do in your role.

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

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.
