Pros

The other workers are very passionate, friendly, willing to teach you how to use the various programs. The work can be extremely rewarding because it is unlike anything else you have probably ever done before - working with recently relocated refugees is not something you can really prepare for, but the staff will help you learn quickly.

Cons

The work is extremely challenging and can be tiring - repetitive days, working with occasionally difficult clients.
