Pros
Great atmosphere, some great and kind colleagues. This is as high as it gets in terms of human rights diplomacy and politics. Opportunity to impact directly diplomacy and human rights advocacy. All in all, an exciting place to be. It is very difficult to pass the recruitment process and it takes many tries to get in but it's worth it.
Cons
Many high-level managers act as if they are untouchable towards those they perceive as weaker/less important. A lot of politics and games in recruitment and promotion, but it is the UN after all. Rules are often ignored. Hoping the new High Commissioner will be able to deal with the snake nests and the rigged recruitment and promotion process.
