Pros

The work you do is meaningful and highly creative, teams are great and national offices have a lot of independence in decision-making. Great job!

Cons

Every 3-4 years you get a new boss, the quality of the work environment depends a lot on who you get. There is a lot of inequalities between the salaries, benefits, job security and growth opportunities within the company for non-Swiss staff.

Pros

The organization truly believes in professional development of employees. Appropriate training opportunities are provided. Second, the work culture is good, people are friendly and helpful. Third, Business Consultants are given considerable freedom to design and implement interventions in their own way with supervision from managers which allows employees to grow.

Cons

Moving up the organization may become tough if seniors have been in that position and do not leave. Exposure for your hard work may be difficult but you have to know how to highlight your work and achievements making it visible any chance you get. This requires at least some level of skill which may not be easy for all.
