AIESEC United States Reviews

Pros

Amazing working conditions, demanding work, a lot of opportunities to grow within the organisation, great network, international conferences. Your extra initiative is usually rewarded.

Cons

The job is voluntary without salary at lower levels. The working culture is quite tough and does not support the ideal work/life balance. Selection to the global headquarters can be quite political.

Advice to Senior Management

Introduce better practices for internal headhunting to keep the talent within the organization.

As the organization is student run, and every year the leadership changes - sometimes there are GAPs in knowledge between generations, which results in decresed performance.
