Pros

Interesting work and great opportunities to learn in your field of choice.

Cons

It's demanding, considering the low pay. There is no money or support for professional development and no opportunities for promotion. Local staff are not valued and are seen as second-rate citizens There's a culture of favoritism, so get ready for politicking.
