Pros

- Meaningful mission - Likable staff (leadership excluded)

Cons

- Culture is negative. A lot of unhappy staff just trying to survive the toxic environment. Staff fulfillment is not a concern. - There is a leadership vacuum. People in leadership positions don't know how to effectively lead to get the best from their people. - Going through a restructuring, which means unstable employment environment. No job is safe - even if you get hired today, your position could still be gone in a few months.

Pros

- HQ offices are in a convenient location. - Some of the employees are extremely bright and hardworking. - Many of the entry-level and mid-level employees are really good people.

Cons

- Even if you're eligible for a performance-based bonus, if your department isn't, you don't get any bonus. - Employees are greatly underpaid by industry standards. While most employees consider it a problem, management is "researching" ways to address it. - Despite high performance reviews, there was no raise. - Employees are valued as much as the printers that are always breaking down. - Employees aren't allowed to have personal lives. Most employees complain that there is no work-life balance, so the CEO jokes that wouldn't be a problem if people just gave up one part (life) of the equation. An employee who brought his new bride to a quarterly board meeting for their honeymoon was celebrated as a committed employee. It was said that when you marry a FINCA employee, you marry FINCA. - Biggest con, there are serious ethical issues at this organization starting with the leadership. If you truly care about making a difference and helping others, go somewhere else.
