      A mammoth organisation with a family friendly package

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      An intergovernmental employer with extreme job safety, interesting work, decent salary and family friendly flexibilites (part-time work, parental leave, home office). It also feels good to work for the public welfare.

      Cons

      The slowness and inefficiencies of such a big organization, dependent on politics can sometimes be frustrating.
