Desventajas
For a nonprofit that positions itself as empathetic and. caring, that mentality doesn't extend to Field Fundraisers. I have only worked here for a week but I've been forced to take lunch with my manager when I just wanted to sit in my car and charge my phone. There's also this weirdly delusional culture where joy and happiness should be used as the primary way to draw people into some of the most tragic stories I've ever heard in my life. People experience a full gamut of emotions when discussing things like displacement. You don't have to approach them like a ray of sunshine every time. I'd argue that doing so is actually pretty inauthentic and disrespectful to those who are experiencing these tragedies. So now let's talk about the cruel quotas that everyone must reach each week or literally be put on probation. I informed this organization that I had a class on Tuesday and Thursdays very early on in my training and they just decided that despite this, I have to hit my weekly quota or I'm terminated. I don't think even corporate America is a cutthroat and heartless as that.
