You learn a lor from the organization, you meet really nice people, you get the chance to explain to people what the organization does so you increase people's awareness, and you help others with your job.

Sometimes people don't want to be disturbed and the weather conditions are sometimes difficult when you do your job.

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.
