Pros

Nice compensation package for the non-profit/INGO industry. Great team members. Good work-life balance.

Cons

Fast-paced environment, constantly changing, which makes it a bit disorganized at times. Health insurance for non US-based employees was done through reimbursements from a third-party (sometimes up to 2-3 months of waiting for a reimbursement). Could be more proactive in supporting employee's professional development.

Pros

It’s a very tough time to be in ID but MC continues to stay afloat and is trying to pivot in this new landscape. I maintain the staff that’s still here is some of the best of the best, everyone really cares and continues to challenge me and push our programs to do better.

Cons

Outlook is uncertain given donor environment. No real opportunities for professional growth. Ongoing RIFs and loss of talented staff.
