Business outlook
Pros
It has a nice pay standard, nice gratuity etc. The talent acquisition in field or country offices definitely needs to hire people, with relevant experiences, or familiar skills and background for the position, they have this trend of hiring random people from the private sector, who have zero clue of how the development sector really works.
Cons
Very slow decision-making, too many levels in between field offices, to senior management and donor agencies, major decision-making time takes forever, creating a very frustrating environment for ground-level staffs. Work implementation is usually hampered due to the inability of DAI's home team to act as a proper mediator between its donor agency and implementing project teams.
