The organisation has a great mission and has been lucky to work with strong portfolio companies across Africa. Loyal and dedicated staff. Many staff members have weathered massive storms created by management and continue to work hard and stay the course, despite feeling undervalued and overworked.
Sadly it is a very toxic environment to work in. Under the previous leadership, it lacked direction and strength in leadership which made for poor donor relations and created anxiety amongst staff. Under the current CEO it has turned toxic with a top-down approach to every decision. There is little room for staff to express thoughts and ideas and constant fear the CEO will lash out at them in team meetings. Staff are incredibly overworked due to inefficient processes and lack of clear direction from leadership. There is a lot of lip service about valuing staff which never materialises. Donors can see the attrition and it's concerning.

Under the current CEO (confirmed in 2020) it has turned toxic with a top-down approach to every decision.
