Pros

Leading agency in the world on refugee protection and professional national and international staffs are working. Dedicated team members for refugees' protection. One of the best organizations for a professional experience

Cons

Staff positions available based on the funds coming from countries so it is not easy to be promoted for higher positions.

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.
