Pros
Hands on experience, Great coworkers-everyone genuinely wants to bring change to the clients served, Compelling mission, As it has been around for years, it has good name in the humanitarian community,
Cons
Management is disconnected from what is really happening on the ground (intentionally or unintentionally) Very low pay Hierarchal and top-bottom management style No career development opportunity Most employees burnout that results in high turnover How the organization looks from outside and what it's inside is very different

Pros
Benefits are good because it's a non profit organization. If you know how to play politics you can sit there forever even with no knowledge for your job.
Cons
The formal goal of the company is to help people all around the world but they don't care even about their own employees. It's a non human treatment! In fact even on the meetings they called us a resource (not by name or title). Pretty rude management and a lot of ignorant people sitting there for years because of the benefits. I have found it's pretty hard to work in this non human environment.
