Avoid!!! - Director of Development Chicago Philharmonic Employee Review

Hardworking and friendly staff Great artistic programs

Very low pay even for arts nonprofits No benefits Often work on holidays and weekends Disorganized leadership with boundary issues

Fun to work with artists and in amazing venues external partners were reliable and easy to work with

disorganized, no real accountability for anyone ED has no idea what they're doing and is bringing everyone down with them during my time, 4 of 7 full time employees quit due to management from our ED ED would regularly not show up to work but would call in after 5:30pm to yell at us for not staying after work hours to get more done
