Business Outlook

Pros

The mandate. Supporting countries in making the best decisions for children. Really nice team overall (may depend on what your team is).

Cons

When based in New-York, missions mean lot of jetlag and lost weekends. No career path upward for technical specialists after a while (you get into management, but if you do not like it, there are few options).
