Pros

Great benefits in general High caliber of employees in a great working environment

Cons

Quite disorganized and slow in making decisions Management has little control by the organization creating opportunities for abuse of power. Good example of how very intelligent individuals are not very smart a group. The concept of empowerment of employees is foreign for the organization. Nobody is allowed to make decisions alone. All decisions are made in groups thus being slow and not very smart.

Pros

You get to work with elitist Spanish speaking Latin Americans who are xenophobic for people that speak other languages, who have processes, paper pushing and career progression as major objective, not real development outcomes (eradicate extreme poverty & improve quality of life in LAC).

Cons

Bureaucracy. Outdated development agency. Abusive to and misclassifying contractors. People who don’t know what they are doing or talking about. Delivers trash projects and pulls impoverished countries further into national debt. Technocratic and too much focus on metrics, not impoverished people’s lived experience.
