      Passionate staff, antiquated business processes and top down structure

      Program officer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Local offices have wonderful, passionate staff, many of whom were former beneficiaries One of the fastest responders to humanitarian crises displacing populations, highly specialized in our work One of the best, most innovation in refugee resettlement work domestically THe ability to work domestically on an international development issue with an organization that also provides aid internationally

      Cons

      HQ structure is way risk averse, doesn't trust local affiliate staff, high turnover in local EDs. Business processes are slow, paper heavy, systems aren't integrated, therefore communication suffers and local staff have a very disconnected view of the HQ vision and structure

      Satisfying work with clients; Staff needs more support

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      In a regional office, the tangible benefits you can provide directly to clients is motivating and extremely satisfying. You literally have the opportunity to change lives for the better and the environment attracts a dynamic, dedicated and close-knit staff.

      Cons

      The lack of resources and sustainable funding is extremely difficult to manage for staff at all levels: front-line staff, managers and executive leadership.
