work life balance, great mission, amazing people, great medical benefits

limited room for growth and low pay, which to a point is a limitation of the USAID funding being cut

Wonderful mission. Great place to work if you want a passionate, mission-driven environment. Easy to make friends among co-workers. Lots of smart, talented people who love the company. You will learn A LOT about peacebuilding, conflict resolution, global politics, etc. You will gain amazing skills and become a better human being. There is a lot to love.

Poor leadership at the highest levels. Strategies are developed and before they can be implemented there are pivots to new strategies. Cuts are made that might make sense on paper with no real understanding of the fallout in "the real world." While cuts are being made, leadership members will commit to overspending on consultants and/or services that are unnecessary, like shiny new gadgets that will surely be the next cure for what ails us. Leadership often has a surprising lack of trust in the amazing people they hire.
