Vantaggi
There are some wonderful people across the world - often at junior levels - giving their absolute all to this organisation. And some really impactful projects. But sadly, that's not enough.
Svantaggi
There is a huge issue with colleague safety across the entire organisation. Country Directors exist in an unregulated role across the world, acting like demi-Gods. There are hundreds of reports of sexual harassment, harassment and bullying that go unacknowledged and hidden. A culture of intimidation and silence is rife. Nothing is investigated fairly. All priority is given to white male British leaders, who are often woefully inadequate, or worse - acting inappropriately across the world. The leadership are truly awful - lacking in any skill or experience, nepotism rules, they constantly give themselves pay-rises whilst cutting jobs, budgets and meaningful projects. During a HR restructure to save money, 3 under-qualified directors ended up on hugely inflated salaries and promoted themselves... then announced "we didn't make the cost saving targets". There is a lot of brilliant people across the organisation worldwide, but sadly they are stuck in a web of toxic management, and an organisation that is both morally and financially bankrupt. The concept that "we do good in the world" therefore we let people off who act poorly in the organisation? Just no. Do better. The British Government should shut this organisation down, and start fresh.
