Pros

1. Fun and brilliant colleagues 2. Strategic project/research

Cons

1. RDI is a family-owned foundation (not a company). On this basis, the owners consider BPJS health and BPJS labour (BPJS TK), not an obligation that must be fulfilled. Even though many projects in RDI discuss human welfare, the owners do not care for the staff's welfare (what an irony). 2. No overtime pay. Overtime can only be replaced by leave during weekends and public holidays (minimum 8 hours). 3. No national collective leave. Sick leave reduces annual leave (15 days). 4. No clear career path. 5. Swift staff turnover. Staff are required to adapt to new people constantly. Please introspect: What makes more than ten people resign in 1 year? We ordinary staff already know the answer, but what power do we have?

Pros

A place that provides ample experience in substantive research and consulting, especially for fresh graduates looking into being out of unemployment. In this job, you will face the 'real world' of how consulting jobs work, especially when handling various clients. Colleagues are mostly gen-Z and work environment is adequate at providing motivation and resources for pursuing a career track or further studies.

Cons

Relatively minimal care for employee welfare. (1) No dedicated HR that can regulate employee welfare and aspirations, no exit interviews and absolutely no attention to any employee feedback to the (single-source) upper management; (2) No board of advisors that supervises upper management; (3) Financial benefits are low compared with workload; (4) No insurance benefits (BPJS) provided by the organization; (5) Workload always surpasses provided work hours (high chance of overtime); (6) ... which happens because there is super high expectation and yet no attention to employee's workload by upper management (high chance of getting more workload on top of an already hectic one); (7) ... which leads to a rather toxic treatment from (again, single-source) upper management. There's a reason for a high turnover rate.
