    Give me a lot of exposure
    The good thingsGood working environment, you are given an opportunity to grow and it can increase your ability to multi task. The staffs are really nice and there is not much boundary between the boss and regular staff. You are working in as a one family.
    The challengesLow salary increment, but that what you will expect in an NGO, and absurd demand from the council and other people that is not even your bosses.

    Good potential ruined by poor management
    The good thingsOrganization provides good exposure to the industry, and opportunities to be involved with other organizations/ professionals are abundant. Good place to gain experience in the industry and to be involved in various types of work scopes.
    The challengesThe organization does not provide adequate training or guidance, and often do not have a clear direction on what their expectations are from an employee or a particular portfolio. Employees often have to use their own initiatives to learn skills required for the job. Employees also often have to do a lot of other things outside of their portfolio/ responsibility due to resource mismanagement.
