Positive Reviews From ActBlue Employees
- What did you like most about the interview process?I was able to interview with folks I would be working with. It gave me the opportunity to meet my future teammates. That helps to develop chemistry right away.
- What makes you most happy at work?Training down-ballot candidates about how our tools help them win elections. Every candidate has the opportunity to maximize their efforts with our tools.
- What are some of the best things about your team?We are diverse geographically. Living in different parts of the country allows us to experience different things from our coworkers.
Constructive Feedback From ActBlue Employees
- What's going wrong and how can it be improved?Stop expanding until you have a cohesive strategy. Invest in the people who know the space. When everyone is burnt out, that's a huge organizational issue, not an issue with an individual and our CEO's response needs to stop being "they can leave".
- What does the leadership team need to get better at?They need to learn this space and stop treating everything as urgent. In an election year, you should not have 5-6 high priority initiatives with the belief "AI will do it". As the adage goes, jack of all trades, master of none.
- What needs to change to make the company culture better?Everything needs to change starting with removing hostile and toxic bullies and inefficient leaders
