Pros

Location, vacation of 30 working days/year, salary, possibility to get allowances (language allowance, children support), UN prestige, many women in leadership positions, colleagues with very broad backgrounds.

Cons

Not paying taxes makes one an outcast of Danish society in a few ways - impossible to get a decent mortgage, no tax deductions, among others. Very hierarchical structure to work. Difficulty to ride up the work ladder, expand work and learn new tasks or get other job positions. Many doctors with managerial roles - i.e. with no managerial skills. Very difficult to get a long term contract or even what is called a fixed-term one. Most contracts are temporary (6m-1y).
