Oxfam Reviews

Pros

it is amazing to work for an organization that aligns with your vision of the world, to have colleagues that believe in the same as you, fight for injustice in the work and... become additional family members!

Cons

salaries as low for the amount of work and passion that everyone puts in. many people had to leave the organization when they started a family, as there was no possibility of growing. If you have no debt, and come from a relatively wealthy family, then you can afford to work for your dream job.

Pros

Good people, decent salary. What else are you looking for?

Cons

Slow growth, no promotion, huge taxes

Pros

it is a fun work environment

Cons

low pay and stressful job

Pros

Great challenge and lots of career growth opportunities

Cons

Workload can be a bit too much

Pros

People are great, especially my team. That's why I'm still there.

Cons

Not that much, there is no perfect world

Pros

Charity work, amazing cause, gives a purpose!

Cons

Work life balance isn’t always the best

Pros

Everyone is passionate about the mission oriented work, which is fantastic.

Cons

High stress + very little room for internal growth. Can be elitist in their hiring practices, you're not likely to get a permanent position without a Masters degree and 5+ years of experience

Pros

Oxfam as a whole is a great non profit. Co-workers are very supportive.

Cons

Throwing yourself at people to get them to sign up, very sales based. No real way to move up in the company.

Pros

Oxfam America is committed to paying its employees a living wage and also to providing a healthy, positive work environment.

Cons

Struggled to adapt to remote work environment throughout the pandemic, unclear strategic priorities and challenges with communication across various departments.
