A grassroots non-profit organization in SE Portland - Anonymous employee SE Works Employee Review

Small company, easy to relate to higher management, work-life balance (higher management trying to improve this), 4-day work weeks (4DWW)

The colleagues but they were unfortunately fired for no reason

| Unqualified and unsupportive management | No opportunities for advancement | Severely limited or inconvenient parking options | ADA accommodations regularly dismissed or resisted | Ongoing issues with workplace harassment that go unaddressed | Bereavement leave recently reduced without explanation or input from staff | Employees are guilted or penalized for using earned sick leave | Outdated technology makes daily tasks inefficient and frustrating | High turnover, with good employees often let go without clear justification or warning | Employees are micromanaged to the point of undermining trust and autonomy | Feedback is rarely constructive and often punitive | Unrealistic expectations without adequate training or resources | Conflict of interest with Human Resources: there is no dedicated HR department—only the Executive Director handles HR matters, which prevents impartial resolution of staff concerns |
