Pluspunten

- Intro to USAID - Opportunities to learn operations and new business - Potential for field STTAs - Great colleagues and affinity groups are helping lead diversity and inclusion efforts

Minpunten

- slow upward mobility in some regions; employees are put up for promotion by PMs but it does not materialize - poor work-life balance - required to use annual leave for federal holidays - opportunities for technical work experience are scarce - Pressure to do new business in order to grow at the company - Many Associates are overworked, especially those that are high performing. A number of them end up quitting and get higher salaries for the same SOW at other companies.

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.
