Pros

The leadership and the culture is good, healthy. Generally promotes work/life balance, is not exploitative, Pay is relatively competitive for a non-profit. Colleagues are great, brilliant cosmopolitan people. It has been severely negatively impacted by the destruction of USAID, and that has been sad to see. Overall, a good place to work in this sector,

Cons

Pay is still at the non-profit level, but that is also the nature of the sector. Recent instability due to DOGE cuts and the elimination of USAID.

Pros

No pros longer in company

Cons

The company gives alternate Saturday off, but if you take leave on long weekend, then you do all Saturday compulsory at that time. You can take 3 restricted holidays in a year... But when you apply for a restricted holiday, it gets canceled.Almost all the employees have not been paid salaries for a few months now. And for the employees who have left the company, a special bouncer has been kept for them…they can neither ask for their salary nor talk to the management.
