Pros
Good and talented people in Rome and in field offices who know how to run programs. IDLO's mission to promote the rule of law is admirable and important.
Kontras
The organization is marred by mismanagement and incompetence in the senior leadership. There is no evidence of forward planning and decision making skills. Because crucial decisions are not made there is constant uncertainty. When decisions are made people in the field are not listened to. Recruitment is a major problem. There is no transparency and a lot of nepotism. There are people who have worked for IDLO for years both in Rome or in field offices who are not competent and may even harm the organization but are not let go or are rehired because they have been working for IDLO for many years. At the same time talented people are let go or they resign because they are so frustrated and demotivated by the nepotism, incompetence and mismanagement they witness.
