Pros

Most of the project advisers are retirees who volunteer their time. They are easy to work with and lack ego because they have already accomplished what they needed to for their careers.

Cons

Sometimes meetings go in circles, with people talking but not adding much to the conversation. There is also a lot of strategizing but very little follow through, which leads to more strategizing.

Pros

Everyone I know at PTF is driven by a desire to fight corruption and increase transparency and accountability of governments so they serve the interests of their citizens. There is a very collegial atmosphere and it is a pleasure to work with them.

Cons

There are no cons in my experience.

Pros

The people at Partnership for Transparency Fund are some of the nicest people I have ever met, much less worked with. It is like working with friends. They do the work because they believe in the cause of anti-corruption and transparency, and how that ultimately helps poor people around the world to get the government services they deserve. They treat their employees with respect. It feels like a privilege to work with them. Many of the younger employees use PTF as a stepping stone to better jobs with larger organizations.

Cons

Because PTF operates on a shoestring budget, they tend to pay less than market rate. Many of the executive team and board members are retirees after a career at the World Bank and other international organizations, so they have a pension and work on a volunteer basis. Therefore that kind of volunteer spirit extends to the senior staff and consultants they employ. I think they pay the junior staff close to if not market rates.
