Great mission and people but poorly managed and excuted
Pros
It had some of the best coworkers I've ever had and the employees are smart and very dedicated to what they do. Since the IRC is well known and respected around the world, it looks good having it on your resume and can open doors to other places. Working directly with the clients has created some memories that I'll never forget.
Cons
There is no training. New hires are thrown in. Usually the office is already overworked and understaffed and therefore new hires don't have the opportunity to get good training. There's no life work balance and you will need to work odd hours but overtime is rarely approved. There's always a look out for more grants and services to gain money but it can cause mission drift and require more services without more staff. Management was also untrained or didn't know how to fix problems. This caused low morale and high turnover which created a bad since there was no new hire training.
