Positive Reviews From American Red Cross Employees
- What did you like most about the interview process?Don’t recall. It was a long time ago. (17 yr
- What makes you most happy at work?My coworkers and knowing that what do do has a positive effect on someone down the line.
- What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?Positive is the people I work with day in and day out. But, morale is at its lowest point in years due to stagnant wages, increased cost of living and chronically short staffed due to the extremely high turnover rate.
Constructive Feedback From American Red Cross Employees
- Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?Fair market pay for the jobs we do and true work life balance and, true annual cost of living increases. Oh, and bring back the pension fund !
- What does the leadership team need to get better at?Actually caring about the employees out in the trenches everyday. It’s a “Humanitarian” organization as long as you aren’t employed
- What's going wrong and how can it be improved?Stop forcing things on workers and it would be better if it was asked instead of enforcing it on us.
