WE Charity Reviews

Pros

Good employee experience especially for the young people. Great benefits, lots of time off, holidays its closed get to spend time with family and friends. Lots of learning development and lots of new tools and skills to learn. You gain access to high profile leaders externally and internally, all while making a great difference through programs and initiatives to support young people locally and internationally.

Cons

The normal growing pains that the leadership is always working to improve

Pros

The organization heavily in manager training into support of employees. This is a learning organization, always innovation and improving the employee experiences. As a young manager, I have been able to participate in a number of trainings that are equipping me to support my staff. The executives at WE spend considerable efforts working on improving experience while ensuring strong performance. Amazing training and learning plus many opportunities to travel and be a part of a global organization.

Cons

not an average workplace- need to be self directed and passionate

Pros

I would like to clarify for readers that the organization does indeed have pay band and job levels. Job levels range from coordinator to executives. Within these levels there are managers, specialists, associates, directors, director heads and so on. Each level has a set of job responsibilities and the skills needed for the job. Each level is compensated within the job level. To be fair, the organization makes it very clear from the beginning that due to maintaining a low admin fee, salaries are not high however they more make than make up for that with their total rewards strategy which includes a positive culture, perks like wellness, birthdays off and lots of free coffee. We have excellent learning opportunities. Its not for everyone but those of us that love it stay!

Cons

need to be able to juggle many balls in the air.

Pros

I whole heartedly disagree with the previous post. Perhaps one or two individuals who work here that may feel this way, but I can assure you that many employees spend years here building their skill sets and making undeniable impact. The organization gives people unbelievable opportunities to develop skills, travel and forge life long relationships. The organization gives its employees global reach, exposure and influence. The organization has really stepped up to support managers and teams. I've worked in environments that are stuffy, pretentious, where ten people have to look through one memo draft, where the whereabouts of people are tracked day and night through tools like slack. Environments where co-workers track and report your every move- WE is not like that. We hire responsible adults and gives them ownership to do their work. I've been in environments where people sabotage your projects, steal you work and take credit from right under you and do not help you so you fail, I can assure you WE is not like that. People care! Management invest in you. The previous post undermines the hard work of me and my colleagues which is very unfortunate and sad. Extremely.

Cons

This role involves patience and flexibility its not a typical 9-5 type of employment

Pros

good environment and co workers. people are very friend and helpful. Lots to learn. Birthdays and holidays off.

Cons

Pros

I worked here before moving up to another position. There was a lot of assistance in getting me to where I am now. There is tons of support if you want to move up to other positions. Very supportive management and great feedback and recognition
