Pros

Results focussed; variety of work; tangible results; great culture; great management; pseudo business model; invests in your professional development. An agency driven by the head but also with the heart.

Cons

Not politically influential, nor a big-name UN agency (in fact - it gains revenue by performing work for others and they take the majority of the publicity and the credit). Not an agency that publicly advocates for any particular issue (compared with UNICEF, UNHCR).
