      Good organization with a strong mission.

      Pros

      The organization has a strong mission, and the benefits package is very generous compared to even most private sector companies. However, to stay in WFP long-term, you realize the compensation is quite high because you are expected to make pretty large personal sacrifices.

      Cons

      The contracts can be short and unstable. The organization is quite reliant on consultants, all of whom have to go on forced contract breaks for 1 month a year just so the organization can say they are not staff (so they can't claim extra benefits). It's definitely a problem in HQ.

      Pros

      WFP provides a significant opportunity to contribute to strengthening global food security and to help strengthen individuals' livelihoods. It is innovative and forward-thinking and has a culturally and ethnically diverse workforce of 15,000.

      Cons

      WFP may not be the place for you if you do not wish to work in dangerous and/or remote locations.
