'already' is unnecessary and also implies five year is not a long time. 'eventually' is OK if you changed the tense to past. 'He worked for the management of this NGO for five years and eventually familiarity bred contempt.' Present perfect is a present tense and he still works there now.
He' does not havinge a good opinion off anyone he has worked with.
present continuous is not used with verbs of opinion or feeling
