      good organization in general, lacks flexibility and coherence in staff management

      Programmer officer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You work for an organization with high values, aiming to make a better world. Good organization to have it in your CV. Training opportunities. Benefits (depending on your type of contract).

      Cons

      Benefits (depending on your type of contract: ie, consultants working in NY don't get a medical insurance, no vacation - although it can be arranged unpaid time off at the discretion of supervisor). Extremely hierarchical organization, slow bureaucracy. Job insecurity. Work life balance non existent.

      In the field it's worth the experience.

      Associate economist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Interesting work that can hopefully help people, good salary and benefits.

      Cons

      The organization can be slow and bureaucratic, but this is highly dependent on the management at that particular time (it rotates every 3 years or so). Furthermore, in developing countries it can be difficult to deal with the counterpart (usually Government), but that (and the ensuing frustration) is part of the challenge.
