Pros

The agency is one of the largest in the UN system and has a wide area of operation (migration management, displacement tracking, humanitarian assistance, legal and policy development etc.) therefore, offering wide-ranging opportunities.

Cons

The organization is strongly influenced by European /North American standards and gives them undue advantage over others. National staff are retained in supporting roles, whereas senior/managerial roles are offered to Europeans/North Americans.
