A global opportunity with some insular ideas - Anonymous employee Danish Refugee Council Employee Review

Many of the systems are still immature or overly influenced by a small group of conservative Danes who treat the international section of DRC as a novelty or expendable. Experienced staff attracted by high salaries often become disillusioned when they realise that there is little to no support in terms of career continuity, retirement or work/life balance, the assumption that all international staff are supported by a Socially Democratic style state. There is also a disturbing vein of social conservatism wherein executive level staff judge international staff on their sexual preference, social or political alignment. This extends downwards in some countries where the DRC code of conduct is prejudicial against national Buddhist or Christian staff.
