Pros

You will work alongside some friendly co-workers and get free food if you don't get fired.

Cons

I can tell you that affiliate country heads can throw you out just because he/she feels like it. It's probably wise to ask current or former employees how frequently have people been chucked out. It'll tell you about your chances of suffering a similar fate. They some times organise demonstrations which make no sense and offend sensible people all for the sake of grabbing news print. Of course this probably turns off as many people to the cause of vegetarianism and animal rights than it attracts. Some SOP forms are unnecessary and bureaucratic.

Incompetent Management & CEO

Pros

Some good friends who are passionate about helping animals.

Cons

CEO treats organisation as a personal fiefdom and is responsible for high attrition rate over the years. Organisation doesn't care about staffer feedback at all. Lack of inclusion and high handedness in dealing with situations. CEO is half the time outside India. (and that keeps most staffers motivated to work) No personal life isn't a concept.

Waste of skills

Pros

Good salary only and a brand name that is all this organization can give and has.

Cons

Very poor HR policy, no provision of providing monthly salary slips, no freedom to give work related suggestions to the line managers and CEO, high level politics by older employees, irrelevant expenses incurred by office administration perhaps enjoying cuts from the vendors. Would request people aspiring to join this organization, please think of some other options. Working here will be share waste of your skills as you will never be allowed to use your ideas for the betterment of the organization. Ideas will be their and you have to implement those like a puppet. No growth opportunities. No balance in work life and personal life leads to frustration and suffocation. Many talented and hard working employees had been showed their way out of office in the past two years. The organization is running under a DUMB leader who has no experience at all. She even does not know how she is being fooled by the older staff. Goes on hearsay and never uses brains.
