Pros

UNCTAD's mission is great and its work on economic development and trade is a nice contrast to what other trade organizations do. Most of the staff are really nice.

Cons

Depending on where you work your experience will be different — every division is different. For all the brilliant, hard-working people there, there are also people who want to do just the bare minimum to get by. People get very much into status quo mindset.

Pros

Nice views of the mountains

Cons

Not much emphasis on process, rigor, critical thinking. Very little impact on the outside world.
