Pros

Good mission - you can feel good about the work you are doing.

Cons

A whole lot of dedicated people work here - until they don't work here anymore. Wages are LOW. Staff are treated terribly. People are overworked and then discarded when it is decided that they don't have the money to pay you anymore. But really... feel good about the difference you made in the world and carry that with you when you move on to another job with a living wage.

Pros

Some great people who work very hard and care deeply. On-the-ground international staff are truly inspiring and dedicated.

Cons

Recent budget cuts driven by federal executive orders have created a strained internal culture. Some teams outside of individual and private fundraising have found themselves in the position of repeatedly having to justify their value in order to access basic resources, which has affected morale and collegiality across the organization. Limited career growth opportunities due to cuts.
