Potential for interesting work but management could be improved - Senior Research Associate Innovations for Poverty Action Employee Review

Pros

If you have an interest in development economics it gives the chance to work on interesting research projects in a wide variety of places. They generally have a good reputation with schools, so work at IPA looks good on a PhD application. Good job for a recent graduate who is interested in pursuing a PhD.

Cons

Oversight is divided between IPA managers and researchers, which can lead to poor communication. Work can get extremely hectic and there is little effort to mitigate this.
