Business Outlook
Pros
Organization assumes liability for all income taxes, diplomatic status overseas, excellent job security, excellent pay, great chance to meet fascinating and excellent colleagues from all over the world, opportunity to witness diplomacy in action and historic moments as they occur, chance to live in some of the best places in the world
Cons
Mind-numbing bureaucracy often defies any semblance of logic, arresting absence of innovation or concern for efficiency, little organization attention to professional development after initial two-year posting, extreme variation in organizational and managerial performance between duty stations
