Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay and definately not overworked.

Cons

Full of red tape. Projects that should take 3 months take 3 years. They waste more $$ than any organization that I have ever experienced. Technolgy wise, UNICEF is in 1995. Everyone is a manger of something yet their are few people to perform the work.

Business Outlook

Pros

pay is fairly well compensated at the upper grades, especially if you are international professional staff (tax free) and take advantage of the benefits (e.g. house allowance, education allowance). Environment is very civilised and not too stressful.

Cons

No cash bonuses. No direct incentive to over-achieve. Easy to get into a follow the herd mentality.
