Pros

1. Engagement with govt/non-profit agencies 2. Enhanced understanding of diverse governance issues

Cons

This is a firm that employs above average talent to work with below average founders to produce average outcomes. Zero appetite for innovation and excellence, merely another cog in the wheel of a rampantly compromised and self-indulgent social development sector in India.

Pros

The only upside of working at this organization comes in the form of developing a more grounded, real time understanding of how the broader social/development sector in India has been hijacked by rootless entities like GDi who disguise individual and corporate profiteering as #NationBuilding efforts.

Cons

There are enough and more but if everything had to be summarized it comes down to this - GDi Partners is morally compromised, led by unimaginative and dishonest leaders who hoodwink donors and young professionals alike about creating "impact" when in fact all they do is design good-looking slides to overinflate their contributions in a work environment that is toxic and misleading.

Pros

At this juncture, there does not appear to be anything readily identifiable that comes to mind.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Cons

- It is worth noting that there exists a distinct possibility that the CEO himself may have posted a review on Glassdoor on April 22nd, in which he characterised his own leadership as “brilliant.” - This conclusion is further substantiated by a careful examination of the CEO’s written style and grammatical patterns, which appear to align closely with those exhibited in the review in question.
