Pros

I love what I do. The evidence that what I do on a daily basis makes a direct impact to children in the field is incredibly satisfying. The company cares about me, they care about me working in a position that is best for me and best for the organization. The community development model is spot on. Nobody around the world does this better than World Vision.

Cons

Lots of middle management, hard to move up. Since it's a non-profit, they are a bit behind the times in regards to technology and

We are so glad that you find your work to be satisfying and inspiring! We commend your desire to have tools that increase your efficiency and yet, as a nonprofit ministry, this can be a challenging balance. It is our desire to strategically invest in future capabilities that allow us to serve even more of the world’s poor, while remaining critically focused on the work that we do.

Pros

A nice place for spiritual growth and meet kind, nice people. A great place to serve left alone children

Cons

Managers at middle level are hard to deal with and training and other resources are not allocated fairly among team members. Lack of accountability and visibility. Waste of time with unnecessary meetings and "Devotion".

Hello, and thank you so much for taking the time to review World Vision. We are so glad that you are as excited as we are about serving children around the world. World Vision strives to make our Christian faith the foundation for all that we do, and because of this we feel that it is important for employees to have time together in things like devotions, prayer, and chapel. We hope to live as followers of Christ by being active, visible bearers of God’s love, and we feel that this best starts in prayer and devotion with each other. Thank you again for your feedback!
