      Pros

      The help guide and mold future global health practitioners, and are incredibly caring.

      Cons

      Before, interns were not offered benefits. However, that policy has changed so that interns receive generous benefits.

      Strong benefits, but mostly remote work options

      Pros

      Good benefits. Health insurance was covered by employer up to a certain salary threshold. FSA, retirement, dental, vision were all offered.

      Cons

      Most programs work remotely, not many in-person opportunities to connect with partners either.

      Flexible remote work but experience varies based on program

      Pros

      Remote work with flexible hours as needed. Great to be a part of such mission driven work. Health insurance and retirement matching are incredible.

      Cons

      Experience can vary based on your program and PI/PD. There seems to be no accountability for PI/PD's and there's no way for employees to safely communicate concerns without fear of retribution or retaliation, leading to very toxic work environments where lower-level staff get the short end of the stick. Given that programs are grant-funded, PI/PD's can also cut/reduce staff's FTE and then delegate tasks to staff remaining without any salary/title change, leading to burnout, frustration and low team morale.
