Success and happiness at international headquarters depends on direct supervisor - Anonymous employee Habitat for Humanity Employee Review

Pros

At HFHI (Habitat's headquarters), you feel a part of inspiring work. Staff surveyed on strategic planning process. It is a prayer-oriented work culture, so some meetings begin with a spiritual reading (which could be a con for some people, but I will list it as a pro). You might be able to work remotely, at least occasionally, depending on manager and team. Good benefits and vacation. One week paid time off for "mission" work after one year of service, to attend a home build/repair in the U.S. or abroad or with another organization.

Cons

Salaries tend to be lower than at comparable international NGOs. Leadership is hit and miss, as with any organization, with some good and others not strong or competent.

Pros

In the beginning there was a big sense of family and being there for each other. There were also nice perks and benefits. Good healthcare.

Cons

Extremely low morale, LOW pay, and high pressure to sell despite lack of good inventory. Lots of favoritism and bad-mouthing certain employees and volunteers behind their backs. Allowing certain associates to take multiple hour breaks despite it being against the rules. Little incentives from upper management to do a good job. Upper management seems to constantly see the bad in things and not what you're doing well.
