World Vision International reviews

Some senior leadership don't walk the walk Rampant misuse of finances and excessive travel Lack of will to implement innovative practices Lack of clear internal career path

In the orientation to work at World Vision they ask the new employees, "what do you think is the most important thing to World Vision?" ...you might guess, "children" "God" "the poor" no, they let you know it is their "reputation." And as time goes on you find that this holds true, everything is about their image, it is very political and cut throat on the inside, people are constantly stabbing each other in the back. Some departments are ok to work at, but I have met a ton of people (former employees) with the same experience. Many people left and continue to leave disgruntled. It is a horrible work environment. They work you to death. Very low camaraderie. If you are a Christian and want to work in development, work at a secular non-profit. People there care about the issues and people much more than places like WV, where everyone is set on building their own kingdom and reputation.
