Pros

* I truly believe in the impact of what GiveDirectly does and the respect of giving cash, no strings attached, to. people in extreme poverty. I've seen it with my own eyes. * Great colleagues - collegial, inspiring, diverse, and committed to the cause * Diverse and interesting, challenging work - never boring * Evidence-based - committed to evidence and data-driven decision making. Thinking rigorously, acting quickly * Highly competitive pay

Cons

* Too much churn in leadership means wasted time, changing directions * Could put a little more value in retaining staff
