Pros

The IRC is definitely much more structured/organized than many smaller NPOs. This can be both good and bad (see cons). The clients and staff are typically great to work with.

Cons

Given the size of the organization, it can often feel overly bureaucratic. US programs seem to receive far less attention that international programs (this can be good or bad depending on where you work).

Pros

My coworkers were great and management was very supportive. The organization does work to be proud of.

Cons

The particular department required extensive travel which can get tiring and the scheduling can be erratic and mercurial, more due to the nature of the work than the staff.
