Pros

-It's a way to gain experience with a major public health institute. -Allow travel/living internationally

Pros

Generous contribution to 403(b), support for professional development

Cons

GHFP's salary negotiation process is ridiculous and is neither transparent nor logical. It is unclear how they determine years of experience. They have no understanding of what fellows actually do on behalf of USAID and are not equipped to make a determination of salary. GHFP is naive to think that fellows do not talk to one another and understand the major disparities in salaries between people with similar experience performing similar work. I would never recommend GHFP to a friend after the experience negotiating my salary and feeling undervalued, misunderstood, and marginalized. GHFP is only able to get away with this because people want to work at USAID.

Pros

PHI is a great non-profit! Great projects, awesome people who care for the well-being of several different communities. Great benefits, too!

Cons

There are so many different projects that you don't really get to know anyone outside your own.
