Pros

International environment, work ethic and condusive work place.

Cons

There were significant biased towards lower level to high rangking officers. Low level staff were been discriminate and power less interm of defending themselves or had no voice to uphold their right. We were treated like a tool and subjected to be retrenched whenever they finds fit. Profesionalism has never been practices and whistleblower were comsidered as threat to the organization.

Pros

Good benefits, you really do help people

Cons

Human Resources takes a highly specialized approach to talent management. In that you cannot really change functions easily in UNHCR. You have to hyper-specialize in one area. So if you are a protection staff, you tend to burn out from trauma without an internal mechanism to alleviate the burnout. The higher you go in UNHCR, the crazier you become.
