      Probably the best place to work in the public sector. People are very proud to be associated with this organization.

      Pros

      Great corporate culture: speed, flexibility, can-do attitude, enterpreneurial spirit. The organization is run like a private sector entity in terms of efficiency but has solid system of values in place. Terrific opportunity for talented yound people to quickly rise through the ranks.

      Cons

      Some people find it a bit boring to live in Copenhagen, especially those without families. Occasional complaints about weather and darkness in winter. :)

      Exciting work with growth opportunities; complicated HQ structure

      Pros

      Opportunities to work creativly and directly with host country officials. Although a UN agency, UNOPS is project-based and so you have to apply higher level efficiencies and business practices than normally required for UN work.

      Cons

      HQ structure limits growth and creativity at times. Very age sensitive structure; if you are young or without a masters degree you will have to stay in one position for a longer time period.
