Pros

Great mission, great food program for community.

Cons

Very toxic culture, starting with leadership. Staff are regularly terminated without cause. Organization does not respond to community need in a meaningful way, and is not informed by best practices.

Pros

Martha's Table has a long track record and a strong reputation in the greater DC community, which makes it a positive place to work. Leadership and staff have stepped up during the pandemic and done right in support of DC families, which has increased the positive momentum. The organization is non-political but is dedicated to addressing the root causes of inequity -- and in effect, racial injustice -- in the city. New leadership in the last two years has hit its stride and is investing in the well-being, sustainability and professional development of the staff. The main building The Commons, opened in 2018, is a beautiful, high-energy place to work with great views of the city and surrounding area. People work at Martha's Table for the right reasons and are generally very good colleagues. Martha's Table has not laid off or furloughed anyone during the pandemic, and morale seems to have remained relatively high. Team members are proud to work here.

Cons

Martha's Table has grown dramatically in recent years, and there is a danger of trying to do too much. There is talk about helping families remain and thrive in Southeast DC in the face of citywide gentrification, but it's not clear how Martha's Table will accomplish this at scale, especially since housing is not an area we focus on. As with many organizations, there are siloes that can make it difficult to communicate across teams.
