Human Rights Watch Associate reviews

They had city directors who couldn’t keep staff and were complained about for hr issues but never managed. People of color reported being uncomfortable working at HRW. Not very diverse

Lots of lip service on DEI but little real progress. A shocking gap between “local” and US/exec salaries; a new compensation structure is worsening this gap. “Gotcha” culture of competition and bullying; toxic environment. Senior managers tolerate and engage in abusive behavior. New members have joined the senior management team in recent years and promised reform, but the changes so far have not been positive ones, especially in terms of DEI, compensation, and workplace culture.
