Pluspunten

- fantastic mission, tremendous impact globally - collaborative environment decent remote work culture and systems - better pay and benefits than most nonprofits

Minpunten

- work-life balance depends on one's position, title, and understanding of how to play into internal politics. There may be several types of leave policies, including unlimited personal time, but not everyone is enabled by their manager to use them - little accountability among senior leadership with problematic management practices. Staff with no management experience are promoted to team lead positions without any training and necessary experience - some are just completely overworked and expected to continuously deliver while others especially in senior positions openly talk about working at reduced capacity or not being fully engaged

Pluspunten

Compelling mission with significant global reach and visibility Opportunities to engage with senior leaders and high-level strategy early on Work that has the potential to be meaningful when adequately supported and structured

Minpunten

In my experience, expectations, norms and priorities shifted frequently without clear communication, making it difficult to understand performance standards or succeed consistently in the role Feedback patterns were inconsistent and at times contradictory, creating confusion and persistent self-doubt rather than clarity or growth False urgency was common and often introduced without alignment on scope, authority, or decision-making, leading to unreasonable, reactive work and avoidable stress. There was a noticeable absence of psychological safety, particularly when asking clarifying questions or seeking alignment Over time, the combination of unclear expectations, inconsistent feedback, and shifting priorities resulted in significant emotional and psychological strain. High prevalence of gossip and trash talk culture; over sharing and asking about people's personal lives.
