Pros

Well established and excellent reputation of being a leading research organization and producing rigorous evidence regarding education, adolescent girls and boys, climate change/crisis, humanitarian settings. Also, research scientists get several opportunities to hone their skills and get new ones (e.g. project management and budgeting). PC has impressive, diverse and intellectually stimulating employees.

Cons

The administrative structure is entirely too hierarchical. Little room to maneuvre if you are not part of a project or if you are not on the Executive Team.
