Is this your company?

I did a 6-month internship at the United Nations Information Service in Vienna and I loved it. - Intern United Nations Employee Review

Pros

Unique atmosphere, great people, a demanding and challenging work environment People from diverse cultural backgrounds who speak all kinds of languages coming together in one place is simply unique. Everyone was most respectful and made us interns feel that we are important members of the team. I learned so much and I would recommend doing a UN-internship wholeheartedly.

Cons

Unfortunately, I was not paid. 6 months of full time work without earning a single penny is really tough. Many are not able to do an internship simply because they can't afford it, which is a shame.

Pros

Great multicultural environment with people from all over the world, which creates a very enriching and inclusive atmosphere. Everyone is punctual and colleagues are very chill and easy to work with. The diversity of backgrounds makes collaboration genuinely enjoyable.

Cons

Very resistant to change and innovation. The organization tends to stick to old processes and is reluctant to adopt new technologies or modern approaches. Progress and improvements move extremely slowly, which can be frustrating for those looking to make an impact. its also unpaid which sucks
