Pros

Work abroad; interesting work; decent/good salary (depending on level) plus board and living allowance of $45,000 for US employees; work in an international office

Cons

Organization is in crisis after Russia's invasion of Ukraine; the US pays its citizens seconded to work with OSCE, but not all countries do. For many countries staff only works for the board and living allowance
