Pros

Very interesting work. You’re helping people who are making a tangible difference in the world for people who need it most. Smart, enthusiastic colleagues. Work/life balance is a priority there, and that’s so important. I didn’t expect KK to be so accessible, which was interesting; she’s a force! And I mean that in the best possible way.

Cons

A lot of staff turnover. Goalposts get moved pretty often. You and your work can be all good one day, then the next day — no warning— you’re persona non grata. It’s hard to explain.

Pros

- The Business & Human Rights team is filled with a passionate, high-performing, and creative leader who can curate peer forums and investment conferences for meaningful dialogue and connection. - Under the leadership of the Head of Investor Relations, the organization was able to delivered a historic success for the annual summer investor conference — both in reputation and in fundraising impact across the organization. - Mission-driven culture with significant external visibility and opportunity to drive systemic change.

Cons

- The COO lacks the strategic and operational acumen required to support or scale the organization's most impactful investor initiatives. His decision-making often slows momentum and demoralizes staff, especially those driving measurable results. - There is a noticeable disconnect between operations and programmatic work, leading to internal friction and inefficiencies. - Concerns exist internally about financial transparency by the highest-level position of leadership, specifically around discretionary funds. This is an area that merits independent review to ensure donor trust and regulatory compliance. - Underpay and overwork
