Pros
The organization has a strong mission, and the benefits package is very generous compared to even most private sector companies. However, to stay in WFP long-term, you realize the compensation is quite high because you are expected to make pretty large personal sacrifices.
Cons
The contracts can be short and unstable. The organization is quite reliant on consultants, all of whom have to go on forced contract breaks for 1 month a year just so the organization can say they are not staff (so they can't claim extra benefits). It's definitely a problem in HQ.
