Business Outlook
Pros
A good company for short term experience and making professional contacts. Met some bright people I will know for years while working at Chemonics.
Cons
Chemonics is a short term company with most employees leaving within 1-2 years due to poor work-life balance. Leadership at Chemonics expects employees to work 10 hour days, 6 days a week, 52 weeks a year. For years employees spoke out about the poor work-life balance with no response from the executive management team. Over the last year Chemonics has lost some of it most valuable employees. Chemonics will be bankrupt within 2 years due to the reputation it now faces in the small international development community.
