Pluspunten

Work can be interesting, but that 100% depends on if you have a manager that will actually delegate more than simple admin tasks to you, which to be frank isn't likely that you will have such a manager at DAI.

Minpunten

There's alot of unconscious, and well frankly, conscious, bias going on in this office. If you are a white male, you will do well and have all the opportunities afforded to you. If you are a woman, be prepared to be told to 'wait your turn' (which will be never), and if you are a minority, be prepared to be told that your culture doesn't matter and people can be insensitive to you even after you address the insensitivity "because we're in America" where apparently only white culture is considered American. The sexism and racism will happen with HR present and nothing will be done. Managers will look out for themselves and throw subordinates under the bus. Managers will tell subordinates that they won't be promoted because they "haven't put enough time in" even though lower levels are grossly overqualified. If you really want to work here and get some experience, do what everyone else does: get hired, suck it up for a year, and then leave to do something better in a less toxic work environment where you're paid more and treated like an equal.

Pluspunten

Strong culture of integrity. Absolutely spectacular colleagues. Super interesting work.

Minpunten

Basically denuded of staff due to USAID cuts. Upper management had become obsessed with performance against metrics that were poorly fit to the business, and were focused entirely on how they might meet those metrics this week, without looking ahead to how to make structural improvements over the longer term.
