Pros

Incredible loyalty within the organisation and amongst its employees. A lot of long term staffers which means that there is great institutional knowledge.

Cons

If you've not worked at DAI for a while and across multiple departments, it can be very hard to move anything forward or break into that inner circle.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
