Pros

It is amazing to see the unity that the people working at World Vision share together it's a big family a weekly you have Chapel every Wednesday I mean who goes to work and gets paid to go to church and Worship the Lord doing Kingdom work. It really is a humanitarian organization that is doing what they say they are doing in regards to being philanthropy based fundraising for less fortunate countries such as Kenya Africa Bangladesh Etc just being a part of that and actually seen from the ground level from the beginning to the end of what we help make possible for people in those other countries was amazing

Cons

I would say the downside of working at World Vision was the third party HR company in the way they did things they were a part of World Vision but a totally entity. I had a very bad experience personally with the HR department and the way things were handled in regards to my employment and my leaving of the company but I loved every minute that I worked for World Vision I believed in what they stood for and I would love to go back anytime if they were to take me.

Pros

Your work is truly meaningful (regardless of your role or department) and you can take great pride in knowing you are doing God's work on a daily basis and helping the most vulnerable children and families around the globe.

Cons

Coming from a corporate environment, there is a transitional period to learn new ways of working (as is the case with any new job) and the difference of how an NGO operates vs a for-profit organization.
