Pros

Pay is good Ample leave days Good career advancement if you stay long enough and work for it

Cons

Although being an NGO that is supposed to stand for human rights, nobody cares about the well-being of anyone in UNICEF. The management and HR's priority is to look-good-on-paper, and would rather keep non-contributing individuals on a payroll rather than go through the process of replacing with competent individuals. As expected for an organization this size, the structure is highly rigid. You will spend a lot more time dealing with red tapes than actually do real work. There is no synergy between departments, everyone works in silo and with no motivation, perhaps except for the P4 levels and above.

A good part time job

Pros

Nice team Flexible work hours Competitive compensation Great training programs; elevates salesperson skills quickly.

Cons

No growth opportunities (reason for 3 stars) Takes years to advance and once you do, your position doesn't really change until you are a team leader. However, until that point, you will be working for at least 3 years. Remember: this is for a job that is repetitive and can be mastered within a month of consistent work, assuming you have the necessary soft skills. Make your own conclusion.
