Pluspunten

It is deeply satisfying to know that the core purpose of your work is to make the world a better place. Working alongside colleagues from every corner of the earth, many with exceptional credentials and talents, is stimulating and fulfilling. The compensation, compared to non-governmental organizations, is quite generous.

Minpunten

There is a tremendous amount of nepotism. One learns the true definition of bureaucracy whilst working there. There is a great deal of technological ineptitude that needs to be desperately addressed. Last, spending significant percentages of donors' grants (in terms of cost per work-hour) preparing reports for the very same donors to show them how efficiently their money is being spent is infuriating.

Pluspunten

Great multicultural environment with people from all over the world, which creates a very enriching and inclusive atmosphere. Everyone is punctual and colleagues are very chill and easy to work with. The diversity of backgrounds makes collaboration genuinely enjoyable.

Minpunten

Very resistant to change and innovation. The organization tends to stick to old processes and is reluctant to adopt new technologies or modern approaches. Progress and improvements move extremely slowly, which can be frustrating for those looking to make an impact. its also unpaid which sucks
