A message to Grassroots Campaigns inquiring about its positions was not returned. "I worked 37 hours one week and got paid around $130 [after taxes]," recalled one canvasser who quit after two weeks.
Yet another worker reported working for 45 hours at Grassroots Campaigns for five days and receiving just $56.
Workers for the advertised position are expected to recruit and build teams of 15-50 canvassers within local communities. They must be:
Committed to and motivated by progressive politics and social change. Leaders, with the ability to think strategically and motivate a team. Goal-oriented, excellent communicators, team players. "Get on the frontlines of some of the most crucial campaigns of our time!" the ad urges. "Work on the ground bringing progressive change to America!"
