Oxfam reviews

Managers not held to account and quality of management determines your experience. Some controlling behaviours remain unchecked and poor performance not consistently dealt with. Lots of talk of learning which does not happen. What you say and how is valued more than delivery. Some technically weak staff promoted well-beyond competence/ experience.

Senior management are a disgrace. They systematically treat paid employees with disregard and willingly turn a blind eye to staff working on their own (so please don't feel the urge to go to the toilet or even eat even though you may be on your own all day). They have no concern with your security or your safety and offer nothing in the way of support. They give lip service to valuing volunteers who do so much but get so little in return. For a charitable organisation they have no regard or respect for the teams who often work over their contracted hours to raise money. They are despicable.
