Cons
Local holidays are not granted by default and must be taken as part of annual leave. While nine official holidays are selected per duty station each year, these may not align with local holidays due to the diverse nature of the workforce. However, this is mitigated by the fact that employees are entitled to over 31 days of annual leave per year, offering flexibility to accommodate personal preferences.
