Pros
Credence provided institutional support contractors for USAID. It was one of the largest employers for the USAID Bureau for Global Health and Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance
Cons
Credence is only interested in their bottom line and corporate greed. Having been an institutional support contractor with USAID for ten years across four different employers, Credence was the worst employer - benefits were slashed compared to previous USAID contracts, no sick leave, only 2 weeks paid parental leave, vacation and other benefits slashed. During the USAID stop work orders, in January 2025, rather than furlough staff as other USAID partners did or treat us with any dignity whatsoever, Credence abruptly fired all of their USAID Bureau for Global Health staff and directed their sub-partner, Public Health Institute, to fire all staff as well. No severance, no notice, immediately locked out of email and other systems, health benefits ended three days later. I was 30 weeks pregnant with a high-risk pregnancy when Credence abruptly me and all Bureau for Global Health staff. Credence is a horrible place to work and they do not care about you.
