      Pros

      Great training ground for future human rights work-you learn from the best in the field. Incredibly smart and dedicated co-workers. Lots of autonomy and independence for researchers.

      Cons

      While some managers are supportive, others can be very difficult. Your experience will depend on your division, which will in turn depend on your manager.

      Pros

      One of the most respected human rights organizations internationally. HRW does not receive funding from governments, which allows for independent agenda setting and objective reporting. Salary comparatively higher than other human rights organizations. Leadership open to feedback and input from staff.

      Cons

      Given the size of the organization, action and response tends to be slower. Reports take too long to be published.
