Ventajas
- You get something like stability with salary and insurance; - There are nice people who really try to do something useful.
Desventajas
- It’s non-career organization, but by some miracle administrative assistant or personal assistant can become Project Officer with 0 experience, while more experienced staff members participate in recruitment. - Almost 90% of recruitments are technical, since there is already someone who was promised to get this position. If you are not from Balkans or Central Asia your chances are really low. - A lot of local management staff members work for more than 15 years and have no idea what is going on outside the building in terms of procurement, financial issues, as well as project management. - There are many questions, as for the proper usage of budget, since international staff members receive both BLA and DSA. That would be really great to carry out the audit of the missions that were already closed or are in process, since there are a lot of interesting facts to discover, how the money of tax payers is used in reality.
