Pros

I work at headquarters in NYC, and from this perspective, I think the organization's focus on the sustainable development goals is important and compelling.

Cons

Again, I only have the perspective of working from headquarters in NYC, and there is a lot of internal politics, manipulation and deceit. Also, there seems to be rampant incompetence, but I believe that may be throughout the UN system.
