American Red Cross reviews

Business decisions of the organization create conflict within the depts that need to work together. Recent changes don't serve the greater purpose of those who support it.

Very low pay for hours expected. Extreme low morale. Management disaster! Extreme micromanagement by supervisor (to the point that it was said to me "you should write that on a larger piece of paper" when I was writing a reminder to MYSELF! And critiqued on how to keep my own personal calendar so "stay organized". My first week I was invited to a staff meeting with my peers from our area. It was very clear the lack of respect that was held for all management by my peers. Peers were openly admonished in front of the group, ideas were called "stupid", and upper management in attendance did not say a word to stop this behavior. One peer stated she felt a lack of respect and leadership and was scolded! After the meeting one peer was actually crying and several more were stating how horrible the management was. I have never worked in such a hostile environment in my life. I was fortunate that another job was offered to me during my first week there and I gladly jumped to take it and left without having to face one more day there. I can't believe how poorly the supervisor was allowed to treat staff with no recourse. After leaving, no one even called or emailed me to find out what happened!!
