Professional workplace to address social change - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) CSH

Exciting to work for a group that is always exploring best practices in the field. Very committed staff.

None that I can think of.

Since my last day in Feb 2024, I have tired to think of things I valued about this organization and unfortunately, I have nothing great to say

I worked on both a regional team and on the federal team. Both experiences were terrible. People leave this organization for many reasons but I noticed how many are fed up of the change talk that goes around in circles. It’s a lot of white people talking about how to treat people from marginalized groups…. so they perform diversity hires so that “everyone” can be a part of the conversation but then they drain those people who perform so much emotional labor but wont implement their ideas. I think that speaks volumes itself but I also have questions and doubts about so many other aspects. Some examples being, how nobody could ever describe what federal technical assistance actually is- yet they provide it!? The organization has clear divisions and works rather divinely across race, class and gender and there is no feeling of true unity or belonging.
