      Quality human rights organization

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      High quality human rights organization. The programmatic work is top notch and often has significant impact.

      Cons

      Management is under-qualified, and often promoted based on accomplishments and not managerial skills. There needs to be a greater internal focus on diversity, equality, and staff morale.
