Pros

The founder and former executive director of SNV USA, Neil Ghosh, grew the organization to $50M in backlog in less than 10 years. I respected that he knew when to take the lead and when to follow. The overwhelming majority staff were great and worked incredibly hard to make the organization what it is.

Cons

Staff is incredibly overworked. There are few processes, procedures, and templates in place to facilitate work flow. The new exec dir has expressed a lack of interest in establishing such systems. She seems more focused on trying to enhance her own image rather than building on the legacy of what has been established.

Pros

I spent quite some time working a the US operation of SNV. It was a great learning experience in a very dynamic, entrepreneurial and fast paced office. I was given good opportunities for professional growth and benefited from the experience of my colleagues, who are a mission-driven and very talented group.

Cons

Funding uncertainties for the office were always a challenge, which led to a somewhat stressful work atmosphere. Despite this, I think management did a good job of keeping the staff motivated and optimistic.
