      Really loved this place

      Pros

      Some of the best coworkers I've ever had, felt like a family. Most of the staff are very passionate about the work and doing a good job. Offered AMAZING benefits that I didn't appreciate until I left. Towards the end, conversations were starting about improving work/life balance and increasing job satisfaction among staff. Job satisfaction tends to depend on which arm of the company you work for.

      Cons

      Poor work/life balance for most staff that allow that to be the case. I was able to push back and keep to a roughly 40 hour work week most of the time. Managers really cared about teaching me and mentoring me. Despite having little to no experience, I was eventually able to conduct an evaluation, and provide technical input just through on the job training.

      Pros

      Opens the door to great opportunities

      Cons

      They under value internal operations. Senior management has no clue what is best for their employees. Work/Life Benefit does not exist. Some benefits doesn't apply to certain departments.

      Good place to start your career in International Development or M&E

      Pros

      - Good learning and growth opportunity for young people who want to start a career in International Development or Monitoring & Evaluation - Junior staff members can get a great exposure to project management and a significant amount of responsibilities - Great opportunity to work on evaluation projects in different sectors (public health, education, capacity building, agriculture, environment, etc.) - Lots of dedicated, smart and fun people - Some improvements in work/life balance after the company adopted a clearer flex time policy - Good benefit (health care package, professional development fund, flexible/teleworking schedule)

      Cons

      - The company relies heavily on USAID work, and its ability to diversify the client base is unknown - Little training or guidance on how to manage a project - most project managers/assistants are learning by doing
