Pros

I cannot really think of any - may be people from other teams have seen some.

Cons

Some managers are extremely disrespectful with their employees - yelling, shouting, most of it of course happening in the meeting rooms behind closed doors so that others cannot see, threats of being fired if that was somewhere else (yep, that happened after correcting a spelling mistake of the manager). There were two managers of two different projects like that. Then, the director of the projects turns a blind eye on all of this, HR does nothing and people who are abusive and bullies still work there. No opportunity for expressing your voice or opinion and ideas to introduce something new, to improve processes or to take initiative. You're being shut down right away. Quitting this place and the team in particular felt like a breath of fresh air and I have never being happier in my life.

Pros

Incredibly high salaries for an NGO. Work-life balance and lots of travelling.

Cons

Since the new President joined, former CEO of TNT, all the money invested by our members goes into his and the Senior management team's pockets - with mostly no background in sustainable development. The teams are left with no budget to serve the interest of our members. We have become a big marketing machine with lots of packaging and no content.
