Just a note that I am continuing to discuss the subjects of turnover and WMF employee morale with Boryana, and I have also asked Lila about this.

While it's not hard to find a WMF employee who will privately (or increasingly, not-so-privately) complain of poor morale, I'd be wary of reading too much into submissions to sites like Glassdoor. Employees

are content rarely take the time to report this, so you end up with a skewed sample consisting largely of the unhappy and demotivated.
Looking a bit further into Glassdoor disproves that theory.
For comparison, here are two non-profits of roughly similar size for comparison:
- NPR has an approval rating of 4.0 out of 5, based on 96 reviews, with 79%
saying they would recommend working there to a friend.[1]
- The American Enterprise Institute has an approval rating of 4.1 out of 5,
based on 53 reviews, with 89% saying they would recommend working there to a friend.[2]
You can find approval ratings in excess of 90% on Glassdoor for some large corporates, based on literally thousands of reviews.
