Intern - Anonymous employee Institute For Policy Studies Employee Review

I loved my job at IPS: I was continually challenged intellectually, the work environment was extremely supportive, and the diversity of staff and board members brought strength to the organization.

The pay was lower than most similar nonprofits.

There are many great colleagues at IPS.

Senior leadership at IPS is a train wreck. It has been for years. They know nothing about operations, finance, human resources, team building, or modern fundraising. What they do is: a) blow smoke, b) blow organizational bubbles. Even long-term funders are backing away.
