Pros

There are so many possibilities to accomplish substantial things and work with amazing fantastic people. There is lots going on with innovation and serious thinking about how to improve aid architecture.

Cons

At the same time, it is a gigantic bureaucracy, so get ready for office politics, power games, etc.--not to mention all manner of cross-cultural barriers to grapple with. Of course this stuff can be invigorating, but also stifling.
