Vantaggi

The Foundation sits on one of the highest levels of a skyscraper in the heart of Chicago. The people are nice and keep to themselves. There are some company outings for promotion of friendly office culture which involves high-end rooftop bars and lunch in their golf resort.

Svantaggi

The board and executives are very conservative and do not heed the advice of those working the actually programs of the Foundation. Even when programs were evaluated and proven to have certain needs or could be directed for better impact, the leaders would rather stay risk-averse and grow the endowment than help create larger impact in the poverty stricken areas of the city.

Vantaggi

Nice office space. Occasionally, lunch and leftover food from meetings provided in kitchen. One of the staff even makes breakfast from time to time.

Svantaggi

The Raiser's Edge Assistant position is a high skill position which is normally filled with seasoned contractors. Unfortunately, McCormick does not provide these workers with a living wage. (In 2017, the hourly rate increased to $10.50 when minimum wage increased from $10.) The Development Director (who signs off on these contracts) is problematic on many levels. He has created a very uncomfortable situation where staff who suck up to him are favored and others are walking on eggshells hoping not to cross him. Assertive women are a particular threat to him and he will make their lives difficult until they leave or will fire them without cause.
