Pluspunten

1 - Many opportunities for personal and professional growth at this company. 2 - The office culture is very friendly, with many smart and driven co-workers who are dedicated to the company mission and cause. 3 - There are opportunities to move around in the company, including to overseas project assignments. 4 - Reputable firm in the international development industry with strong technical expertise.

Minpunten

1 - Has a "decision by consensus" culture, which although collaborative, leaves a large gap in accountability. 2 - Salaries for entry-level and mid-level positions are low, although typical for the international development industry. 3 - Internal support departments (i.e. IT, HR, Procurement, Contracts) are not effectively managed and operate inefficiently. 4 - Depending on the department you are in, work-life balance can be challenging as the workload is quite heavy and there is pressure to keep staffing levels low.

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.
