      Quite a Mixed Experience

      Intern

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Surprisingly dynamic and energized environment, despite the infamous bureaucracy of the UN Motivated, altruistic colleagues Diverse, multilingual office

      Cons

      Limited resources mean personnel can be overworked, and stress at times sours the office dynamic and relationships You have to get lucky with a manager - some will invest in you and take an interest in your advancement, others will treat junior people as disposable Very limited opportunities for younger employees, and of course the consultancy system leaves much to be desired

      Pros
