Pays well and is gratifying, but is it worth it?

Data analyst consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pays well, gratifying work, international environment, flexible schedule. I was lucky to have a team of great people, but not everyone is so lucky.

Cons

Full of incompetent people who are just in it for the money or status. Extremely frustrating for an organization that is supposed to be built on humanitarian values. Much of the leadership is incompetent and wildly overpaid. The majority of the work is done by short-term staff with unstable contracts. Talent is not well-distributed and hard work is not rewarded.
