Amazing work, but management approach must be improved - Anonymous employee Asylum Access Employee Review

Values-based, authentic, hardworking, thoughtful place to work. Ask for what you need and assuming its mission-aligned and financially feasible it'll probably be taken up.

International work means strange hours. Hard to avoid. It's important to have strong personal boundaries.

Asylum Access's mission is to make refugee rights a reality. We influence refugees' lives 1 by 1 and also change policies and make laws nationally and globally. Generally, I love working at Asylum Access because the mission moves me and our impact is tangible. We are a team that works hard and are dedicated to making change happen. At Asylum Access a sense of humor is also deeply appreciated. While I have felt some of the growing pains of transitioning from a start-up organization to a larger global institution, the organization continues to take important steps to ensure staff well being. The refugee rights field is small and insular and our volunteer and staff alums all over the world -it is exciting to see our alums in so many important places and continue to make a difference in human rights.

The organization is growing FAST and lots of work falls on the shoulders of a few staff and very key volunteers. I hear we will see better salaries and redistribution of roles to continue to address the symptoms of such growth and frankly, the demands of an ever growing, needy refugee population globally. It helps to have lots of PTO and a flexible work-from-home policy and knowing that the org cares about its people. Changes are being made in response to staff requests.
