Pros

- Work with smart, creative and humble group of people - More or less flat structure with minimum hierarchy (CEO & President welcome new ideas and discussions -- unheard of in other NGOs) - Provide safe space for voicing opinions/ideas, transparent culture - Teams are passionate about human development, environment, and the betterment of global communities.

Cons

- Diminishing revenue streams is a problem, however, senior management is too comfortable with status quo and has very low risk appetite - Very little innovation is encouraged/sponsored, although staff boasts of excellent talent/ideas - Do not seek to understand market realities and adapt organization goals/strategies accordingly
