Pros

Diverse and international work environment: different cultural aspects and languages that can enrich your daily work. The pro of working for international development in a very diverse continent with many facets and different political and economic environments.

Cons

As every international organization there is huge bureaucracy and slow processes involved in every project and activity. Patience and personal relationship will help you best manage these circumstances. It is not the private sector.

Pros

- Good working experiences for LATAM people. - Very talented people from different countries. - Learning opportunities from different projects and resources. - Compensation to my needs is Ok.

Cons

- Some workers extremely overloaded. - Feeling or sense of fake urgency focused on anxiety instead of burocracy removal. - Sending emails or messages after hours and even overnight is NORMALIZED. Because is a sign that you are working more. - Leaving work on time is negatively seen. - There is a need to appear that you are working more than others so staying late, or getting home to work is the rule. - Human resources is not addressing this cultural problems but is silently impacting employees. - Competitive environment that sometimes could be toxic.
