Best Job in the Canvass Biz - Canvass Director Donor Development Strategies Employee Review

Pros

As a director there's a huge amount of autonomy and as long as you can work hard, canvass well, and organize people you'll be great. You only work 40 hour weeks and get paid more than directors at other canvassing organizations like The Fund or GCI who overwork and underpay their directors.

Cons

Occasionally you'll have to work 6-days a week, sometimes as late as 11:00 at night. The company wont pay for staff nights and travel expenses upfront.

Pros

Fun laid-back work environment. Working for a good cause and helping make an impact in the community.

Cons

Door-to-door canvassing in the winter is pretty miserable.

Pros

Good money for what it is! I enjoyed working outside and meeting new people every single day.

Cons

Hours are tough. Upper management ranges from incompetent to downright malignant. In weekly all-director meetings, canvassers (i.e. the people who actually make this company run) are talked about in abhorrently demeaning terms. Turn over rate is insane and the company has zero will to fix this, which leads to an unstable-feeling work environment. The only people who are treated with any sort of respect at all are the brass in Denver.
