Vantaggi
The projects teams are generally collaborative and hardworking and were a pleasure to work with. Salaries are high for the sector, and the remote work setup is effective.
Svantaggi
Senior management requests current staff to leave positive reviews on Glassdoor to balance out negative ones, so be wary of recent 5 star reviews! Chaotic and poorly managed. There is high staff turnover, with no accountability for Directors. Project teams are set on a lower tier than “global” level staff, both in terms of job stability and opportunities for professional development. Fully profit driven, with significant focus on increasing margins on grants, to the benefit of executive staff. No clear organizational structure or theory of change. Work-life balance and flexibility are touted as core organizational values, but the culture encourages competition and overwork. Opportunities for professional development are controlled by senior management and are discouraged so that these funds can be used for other purposes. Overall, an opaque and toxic work environment.
