Pros

Flexibility, autonomy, and work-life balance.

Cons

I had an unpleasant experience working here and would not recommend working for this organisation unless serious internal reflection is done on the current management style, characterised by centralised decision-making and lack of transparency. Although the organisation has been running for a while, few documented processes, methods, or knowledge resources exist. Hours of work are lost on constantly shifting directions and recognition is limited. I witnessed and experienced repeated instances of incoherent and condescending feedback on deliverables from senior management. The remarkably high turnover rate is proof of the internal issues in the company.

Pros

Flexibility and good work-life balance.

Cons

I had a terrible professional experience here and until the organization undergoes a serious process of internal reflection, I won't recommend it. Several factors contributed to this: - The implementation of the programmes within the company is marked by significant volatility. I experienced a lack of clarity in the motives behind certain strategic decisions that affect programme’s direction; highly ambitious goals without clear pathways or experience for achieving them; inexistent collaborative learning opportunities or monitoring and evaluation policies that allow learning from previous processes; misleading communications with external stakeholders that created big expectations without clear methods to fulfill the promises made, among others. - Absence of clear reward and performance policies that create challenges in recognizing individual achievements. - On several occasions, I received disrespectful emails from the CEO, often focused on highlighting micro mistakes and failing to acknowledge employee achievements. Evidence of this are the high turnover rates with employees leaving constantly, which also disrupts the overall motivation and the continuity of processes.
