Pros

The program areas recruit highly intelligent people to solve complex problems faced by developing countries and high risk populations. Satisfaction is gained from making life better for others. The best benefits package of any organization I've worked for, great location.

Cons

The level of skill and professionalism in the IT department is not equal to the rest of the foundation. IT fails to deliver on time, listen to the customer, deliver promised technology or technology that functions as expected. IT staff are not civil when engaged. Groupthink and bureaucracy is at a premium. Hierarchy is very noticeable.

Pros

Exceptional talent at mid-level, educated and inspirational people doing fantastic work, stimulating place to work, lots of interesting topics and you will meet a lot of interesting people

Cons

Unfortunately, there is increasing beauracracy and the lower level employees, those below Program Officer level, are virtually invisible to management
