Pros

Extremely friendly environment. There was a lot of supports and collaboration, little competition.

Cons

UN internships are unpaid, so you really need to financially plan ahead.

Pros

Helping children around the world Working with great people Flexible work environment (in terms of being able to work from home, schedule appointments, etc.)

Cons

Very limited in terms of growth/opportunity within the organization No consistency or fairness in terms of salary and treatment of employees among different teams (i.e. similar role on one team makes less money than that on another team for no apparent reason) Not very many perks/benefits like time off during holidays or staff appreciation events Minimal to no recognition for exceeding goals/targets Vacation time is minimal and impossible to negotiate more No transparency from Management/HR in terms of roles/salaries/performance reviews/etc. No clear direction/consensus from Executive Team

Pros

Flexible working hours are enjoyed by many, especially parents.

Cons

Not many cons in my opinion. I was disappointed to hear that my grand mother was not considered as a close relative when i asked to attend her funeral - but a solution was figured out.
