Pros

The work that ACDI/VOCA does is great. This company strives to better lives around the world by implementing agricultural projects in under-developed countries, which is largely the reason I work here.

Cons

The most toxic environment I have ever worked in. All employees seem miserable and over 10 people have resigned in the last 2 months. This company is going down fast. The management treats its entry and mid level employees terribly, with little to no room to grow within the company. ACDI/VOCA has a very catty and gossipy work environment, which I'm sure isn't unique to this company, however, it does make for a miserable work week. I dread going to work on Monday morning at this company.
