Pros

Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation, Inc. provides wonderful opportunities to apply and develop quantitative and qualitative analysis skills. Chief Executive Tania Rempert trusts her employees to do high quality work without micro-managing. In particular, she has a knack for assigning projects so as to both reinforce and build on already-held skills. Moreover, the work provides real-life experience that meets employer KSAs in a number of other fields, e.g. handling multiple tasks on deadline, excellent oral/written communication skills, ability to present complex topics to diverse audiences and stakeholders. Please note: I only gave 4 stars for "Compensation & Benefits" because, as a contract employee, there were no benefits per se. Compensation was absolutely fine, though.

Cons

Workflow was light at times, but that has more to do with dependency on grant-based funding than anything else. Tania tries to provide regular work as much as possible, especially to contractors with whom she has worked previously.

Pros

I was able to make a difference in communities using skills I learned in the ivory tower. I think people actually used and read our reports. I learned a lot while I was there. I loved working remotely and the flexible work schedule. Everyone was very supportive of me while I was there and we keep in touch now that I have moved on in my career.

Cons

I wish PIE had more opportunities for full time employment and career growth.
