      Pros

      International environment, experienced staff, and great atmosphere. Opportunities for learning (in-house language training, other professional development opportunities), traveling, networking.

      Cons

      High level of bureaucracy which significantly slows down many activities. UNHCR is an international humanitarian agency funded by donors thus there is always some uncertainty in terms of future career plans because mostly short-term contracts are awarded.

      Pros

      Good benefits, you really do help people

      Cons

      Human Resources takes a highly specialized approach to talent management. In that you cannot really change functions easily in UNHCR. You have to hyper-specialize in one area. So if you are a protection staff, you tend to burn out from trauma without an internal mechanism to alleviate the burnout. The higher you go in UNHCR, the crazier you become.
