Pros
Feminist Leadership Principles
Anti-racism Principles: https://careers.plan-uk.org/anti-racism-principles
Most staff at all levels committed to creating a feminist work place and questioning the status quo (particularly at entry to Manager levels).
Good training. Stand-out is 'Power, Privilege and Bias', designed by Head Office and offered to every member of staff at regular intervals. Helps create an aware and inclusive workplace.
Great work/life balance
Cons
There's only so much that can be done to be feminist, anti-racist and inclusive within a typical NGO structure. Internal politics, slow processes and general fear of embracing quick change that you find at most, if not all, medium sized NGOs. Limited development opportunities outside of your immediate role... very much charity sector.
