      Australia office: Great brand for an organisation, fantastic cause but terrible management.

      Pros

      A lot of the staff are very dedicated to the cause and very passionate about helping people.

      Cons

      Senior management appear to be hiding their inabilities to manage effectively. When there are bad decisions made, they appear to sweep it under the rug and move onto the next bad decision. There is no recourse for bad decisions and lessons are not learned so knowledge is not passed on. The board don't seem to have a clear view of what is happening almost as though the senior management are filtering the information.

      Amazing cause, but appalling executive management in Australia

      Pros

      Very worth cause with some incredibly dedicated and talented staff who are there to make a genuine difference.

      Cons

      Executive management have no integrity, treat staff very poorly and actively hide their poor performance from the board. Extremely high staff turnover because of a lack of faith in management.

      Pros

      Co-workers are passionate and kind The larger organization does amazing work, one of the most well-known human rights organizations Get to spend time outside, especially lovely in spring and fall Meet loads of new and interesting people

      Cons

      High office turnover, especially when they change quota/employee standards with little warning. Demoting team leads is discouraging for new employees and shakes the office. Need to be thick-skinned as people who disagree can become hostile and demeaning. Sexual assault while out on the street can become an issue and management does not acknowledge this even when it is brought up by senior staff Management is chaotic, condescending and out of touch. They struggle to relate to the job and come off as abrasive and hurtful to employees. I would not recommend solely because of management In the beginning, they put your hours just under 40 so you are not considered full time (benefits)
