Pros

The people ; There was great team spirit before "the scandal" ; good opportunities to travel ; decent salaries for the sector

Cons

Its turned around since the fraud was discovered ; no trust in staff ; anyone who was in the organisation "before" is overlooked for promotion in favor of new blood ; very negative attitude and vibe now ; not a pleasant working environment ; tendancy to blame staff for what happened which wasn't their fault

Pros

well country teams work so hard to make a difference in places that they serve usually under very difficult circumstances.

Cons

very centralized organization, unfairness in recruitment and promotions ubiquitous, basically you need to know someone in HQ to be promoted, and very low salaries as well, the HR is a mess.
