Not a good experience (international programs at HQ)

Business Outlook

Pros

Good service delivery in some areas.

Cons

The IRC is run like a corporation, not like a humanitarian organization. At headquarters, I was surrounded by careerists who never really reflected on the values of the work itself. It felt artificial and mechanical, and there was no room to grow.
