Pros

Instiglio is on the cutting edge of innovative finance for development - fast-paced, high-performance, growth and learning oriented culture - environment focused on taking initiative, opportunity for growth if you demonstrate high performance.

Cons

A fast paced environment means that the work is fast paced as well. During times of peak work, this can mean pulling long hours. Don't expect this to be a 9-5 job.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. As you mention, fostering a culture of learning and growth, as well as a constant drive for impact, is in Instiglio's DNA! We are working on some operational measures to ensure that the "high peaks" are manageable and that our teams are able to enjoy necessary and important rest. We truly appreciate the time you have taken to share your comments, as they help us serve our people better. Raul Rivero, COO

Pros

- Great exposure to international development agencies and international opportunities. - Young, diverse, and passionate team. Everyone is very intelligent and friendly. Great if you want to speak several languages in a single day. - If you show you are competent and have a high sense of ownership, you will be able to contribute a lot, they will give you ownership / space to suggest what you think is best. - Great diversity of projects, so the job is never the same (not monotonous).

Cons

- Sometimes you will work 10 or 12-hour days. - Sometimes you don't get to choose the projects you will be working on.

Pros

The mission of the organization is great, as are many of the people

Cons

The leaders of the company are tremendously self-centered and inexperienced. They expect others to take hits for the "mission" in salary and work-life balance, and judge those who do not. Leadership is often done immaturely, and it is clear that they bend the rules to benefit themselves and their favorites.

On behalf of Instigio, we thank you for leaving feedback for us. We appreciate hearing what we are doing well and what we need to improve upon. Over the past couple of years, we have made important investments in growing our Leadership team and our People Team. Our Board of Directors has also recently expanded; providing oversight over all major organizational decisions, as well as accountability to our Leadership Team. As a result of these investments, we believe that our employees' experience has improved. We invite you to communicate with us directly if there are any specific matters which we can help address or which should be brought to the attention of our Compliance Officer. We also welcome prospective Instiglians to contact us. We would be happy to put promising candidates in touch with current Instiglians so that they can learn more about the Instiglian experience. Avnish Gungadurdoss, Managing Partner
