This is a great place. But the guilt trips are hard to deal with.

Pros

Great Christian organization. Doing great work in the field. Have never come across anyone who is mean or disrespectful. Everyone has a common goal to help the worlds least fortunate so they can live life in all it's fullness.

Cons

Organization often uses "guilt trips" to get their point across. It seems the only way they feel they can get their point across to the employees and donors is to make them so sad and depressed and overwhelmed that they feel obligated to give. I can't tell you how many times I have left "Chapel" sad and depressed by the images they show and spend the day (or weeks/months) with the images of sad, dying or starving children in my mind.
