Great professional development and opportunity to do meaningful work for the willing to commit
Pros
- Steep professional development curve and development of a robust skillset applicable horizontally across jobs - Opportunity to work with the seniormost political and bureaucratic leadership in the country - Robust culture of coaching and professional development through a multi pronged approach - One of the few orgs in the ecosystem that genuinely treats social impact as the bottom line and north star
Cons
- Not suitable for even (all) those looking for a high paying or an impact oriented role owing to rigour of work and demands of stakeholders in the government - required perseverance through and through. - To succeed work has to be priority 1 in the initial year or two, till one learns the tricks of the trade. Balance is difficult to achieve in the initial years if excellence is a personal goal
