Dysfunctional and hypocritical organization

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

From a vision point of view, they are well meaning and do help the poorest of the poor.

Cons

How this translates in the workplace is a whole other story. People with severe behavioral problems, leadership included. Change policies on a whim. Mis-use of funds.

Great People, Poor Policies

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The people are passionate, caring, hard-working, and very intelligent. They treat you with respect and help you in your career development. The workplace is a good mix of serious and relaxed, but very fast-paced at times. There are lots of optional events to attend and expand your knowledge into different sectors. You can develop very good relationships with all of your co-workers despite the size of the workplace. The gender equity is apparent and appreciated.

Cons

The top-down policies on homosexuality and religion are antiquated. The organization is not very innovative and adaptive. The leadership gives off a conservative and authoritarian vibe. Associates seem like they are expected to work ridiculous hours.

Massive lay-offs

Business Outlook

Pros

Work colleagues are best reason to work for World Vision. Great mission and does makes a difference in most communities.

Cons

Massive lay-offs for the last year or so. Unstable future since they are hemorrhaging money. World Vision keeps management staff that belittle and degrade their reporting staff even when there are solid complaints.
