Inter-American Development Bank reviews

To be hired as a proper staff with benefits you need the right nationality. With former CEO this was a must. If you are from small under-represented countries don't bother coming to this place. Hiring and promotions of some groups intensified in the last few months. Consultants in need of a G4 visa do staff work with no benefits or stability. Staff sometimes abuse them. No visibility is given to those who get the job done. Other times, staff create more work out of thin air that is not even remotely in your contract TORs, and you don't feel in a position to complain. This figure of "consultants" should not exist at all in an institution that allegedly is fighting inequality. The institution lacks professionalism across the board. Deadlines are a suggestion. To approve one miserable thing takes months and sometimes years pass without anything happening, until you get just an "ok". Top hierarchies are overpaid for what they do. Staff is obsolete or mediocre and lacks motivation to improve themselves. The only thing staff do is to push for more money to hire more 'consultants'. In consequence, half of the workforce works underpaid and abused and the other half just drink cafecito in the cafeteria. In sum, the IDB is a disaster, and I don't recommend it unless the new CEO radically alter the status quo.

No cons come to mind off the bat
