Pros

It offers great benefits and if recruited for an actual position, it offers great job security.

Cons

It is not great for career perspective. A lot of current employees are frustrated and easily irritated. There is a LOT of bureaucracy and not easy for career advancements. Most people end up staying because they rather stay in the country for the visa and not because of the work or the organization’s mandate. There are a lot of incompetence in middle management so be ready to deal with mediocracy.

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
