Pros

Working for an organization with great reputation and the most important cause: the welfare of children. Multi-cultural environment.

Cons

Not always coherent between what promotes for women and children vs. the benefits for its employees. Too much burocracy. Too less autonomy (extremely vertical organization).

Pros

Working at the UN was an amazing experience, being able to take part in such a significant mission was great.

Cons

As I was not a full-time volunteer and was also responsible for fundraising in my territory, I felt that I did not receive the same treatment as the other volunteers. It was a challenging role and experience, and at times it felt like my well-being was not fully considered.
