Excellent work is being done for Oregon - Asesor De Ventas Y Atenci n A Clientes Oregon Community Foundation Employee Review

Great working environment and fantastic staff. Salaries are competitive and rewarding to work for good causes.

No many opportunities to grow and interact with other Portland NGOs.

OCF does great work in the community and its very gratifying to be part of that. Many jobs feel directly connected to the people and communities that are impacted. Practically all of the employees are very skilled and great to work with. Many jobs involve working, and developing meaningful connections, with all sorts of nonprofit employees, donors, and community leaders and volunteers of all sorts. In lots of real ways, its a great and influential organization. OCF also represents how to put DEI goals into concrete action. Everything the org does is about inclusion and equity and diversity in every possible meaning of the words. Pay for some but not all position is quite good and the benefits are generally fantastic. Opportunities for career growth are there but, as far as i could tell, only at low rungs.

Management is not great. In the years I worked there, numerous very skilled people were abruptly pushed out (sometimes very shortly after being hired away from other great jobs) because somebody (often the CEO) decided to take things in a new direction that is never articulated. People were fired for asking valid questions about strategy or for gently pushing back on bad decisions. This has led to really bad morale problems on several different teams. Other people left without having anything lined up, or to take a step down career wise, because they were burned out. Senior management is a black box and will talk in folksy platitudes about how important the work is, but not give details about actual goals or strategies or near-future plans. Management also feigns ignorance about the morale issue, which is obnoxious. When compared with the great pros of working here, the cons are *frustrating*. A lot of folks perceive this org as a career goal but it is not necessarily a great place to work.
