Large bank with great benefits and relatively relaxing work enviroment. Maybe salary is a little less than industry but the stability and benefits compensate. Lots of ops to learn more.

Pros

The WBG is a great institution to work if you enjoy the exposure to other cultures. I really enjoyed my time there sharing with people's backgrounds, experiences and culture. It has a great deal of professional and engaged people. People who really care about helping poverty ends. It has great benefits if you are a full term employee.

Cons

It is difficult to grow in this institution. If you have plans to learn and advance your career this place is not for you unless you don't care to spend 15+ years or even more here. It also people that abuse of the power...Specially on your reviews.
