Pros
Meaningfull work, field-based agency, leaders in global displacement affairs (although this is slipping a bit), depending on position chance to make direct large-scale impact.
Cons
Stuck in the 1980s with the way of work although the current High Commissioner is trying to change things up. An agency based on connections and taunting the party line, little reward for working hard and coming up with creative ideas that can benefit thousands of life. Not enough reflection on how to tackle corruption in humanitarian operations. Lack of training, particularly for managers, which reflects way of working. Re-invents the wheel every time, not enough usage of lessons learnt in operations. Budgets are divided unequally over humanitarian operations.
