      Great Mission, Mediocre internal systems and processes

      Officer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      - Mission driven - Great exposure - Huge organization, so there's a lot to learn from on the job - One of the top INGOs to work for if you're into policy/advocacy -Pays slighter better than other NGOs/INGOs (at least in the US)

      Cons

      - Poor internal systems/controls (HR, L&D) - Organizational vision can be shifty in terms of what kind of NGO the IRC would like to look like - Despite it being a huge organization, there's not that much room for mobility internally, opportunities for L&D besides from on-the-job learning
