Pros

Great organization for young people who don't have families or other 'inconvenient' attachments and are free to skip from country to country and gain hands-on experience. You can get ahead quickly if you are willing to work hard and get a name for yourself, it's a relatively small organization. Generally has a decent field reputation.

Cons

Limited technical expertise. Can be frustrating for more senior staff as there is not much room to grow past a certain point. You can be country director by 30. This can make it hard for bigger organizations or very experienced people from other orgs to take you seriously...
