Pros

Strategic Capacity Group (SCG) does meaningful and impactful work around the world. SCG's salaries are more than competitive and I have never worked at a place with so many promotion opportunities. If you like to travel around the world, there are many positions that will allow you to do so; you may end up traveling through Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, or Latin America. Please note that not all positions are traveling positions. Regardless of what other reviews may say, diversity is significantly high across positions. In upper management (Deputy Directors and above) you will find that just over 50% are women and about 50% are people of color (POC). Most importantly, regardless of whether you are a POC or not, what will determine your success is coming up with solutions to solve challenges (thought diversity). If you are good at this, you will get quickly promoted. SCG also has weekly happy hours, great snacks, and really spacious office settings for everyone (during Covid, most people are teleworking). Its current location offers an amazing gym with saunas and it's close to a metro station. SCG also offers a transportation stipend or a parking space (employee's choice), and a 401K matching contribution plan.

Cons

SCG is still a small yet fast-growing non-profit. As with any fast-growing corporation, there will be growing pains. Policies and procedures are being written or expanded, however, it is also an opportunity to learn about how businesses work and leave your own stamp in making suggestions or collaborating in writing these new policies and procedures.

Pros

None. Stay away from this burning dumpster fire of an organization If I could give zero starts I would. It is that bad of a place to work.

Cons

-Narcissistic President who only wants to make as much money as she can, legally or illegally, while crushing her employees -Crooked HR and Finance Department. They do the President's bidding regardless of the ethical consequences -Blatantly falsely billing the Department of State -Forces employees to "modify" their hours to ensure the company can make more money -One employee holds the threat of a lawsuit over the President if she doesn't get what she wants -Will hire fresh graduates from college, underpay them while working them to the bone, then dump you before you get a pay raise to maximize the President's ludicrous salary -Board does nothing to reign in the illegal activities nor the overly paid President -Illegally mixes her for profit and non-profit companies for employees and funding -Members of the senior staff will post fake positive reviews on Glassdoor to make the company look better -Unless want to be bullied, treated like a moron, and potentially have to testify when the inevitable investigations arise, stay away from this place!
