Excellent Company - Manager bei DAI: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Very supportive environment with a big focus on professional development. A lot of effort went into onboarding new staff and ensuring a reasonable work-life balance. Generally everyone was very friendly and truly passionate about the work, which was very motivating.

As with any corporation, sometimes decision-making was not super transparent and could be political. However, as someone working in the mid-level ranks, I found that this did not impact me too much and I genuinely felt that most decisions were made for the best of the company rather than for the advancement of an individual.

Strong culture of integrity. Absolutely spectacular colleagues. Super interesting work.

Basically denuded of staff due to USAID cuts. Upper management had become obsessed with performance against metrics that were poorly fit to the business, and were focused entirely on how they might meet those metrics this week, without looking ahead to how to make structural improvements over the longer term.
