Great place to gain experience - Volunteer Advisor Working Families Employee Review

Great people. Fun, new experiences.

Long hours. But okay and nice.

Overall, it's a great company with worthwhile goals and a realistic understanding of how to get them. As a canvaser, one is allowed to a great degree of personal responsibility in their work, with relatively little oversight. Basically, your supervisors drive you somewhere, you eat lunch, and you knock on doors. There's relatively little chance of failure, so it's pretty rewarding, and it's mostly older people so it's nice to see that the senile aren't always so curmudgeon.

It is VERY DISORGANIZED. There is no clock in or clock out system. There is no real training. There is relatively little job security. The supervisors can be passive aggressive and upset when unexpressed expectations are failed to be met. Meetings are held in hallways.
