World Vision International reviews

Pay less than industry due to non-profit status

It is a Christian organization and at times it seems that unqualified Christians as opposed to qualified, professional non-Christians are hired. This is particularly true in the field offices and is also true of some of the people who rose through the ranks and are now in senior management positions. In addition, most of the people have not worked outside World Vision therefore you see the same ideas, same management styles and same development approaches being recycled over and over again. World Vision tends to separate itself from other organizations that work in the same field, therefore, you have fewer opportunities to network with non-World Vision people. Minimal sustainable impact in the field - this is unfortunate as World Vision has a ton of resources. These resources, combined with qualified people and good, progressive strategies can be put to better use.
