Pros

It is truly worldly, well-compensated compared to non-profit organizations, and has healthy benefits package as staff (though with current budget cuts, I can't attest to how this is changing). Because the Bank is so big, with some initiative you can seek out your own interests and network and cross-over into new areas of interest.

Cons

Innovation can be crowded out by bureaucracy (as with any large institution). On some teams, a few hard workers carry others who do a really good job of investing a bare minimum of effort.

Pros

Flexible work but at the same time very stressful. At the end of each fiscal year, you have to find another unit and contract to to be able to contunue to work. If you are luck, you will keep working.

Cons

No benefits (retirement, health etc) Impossible to get full-time position Relationships are very important to get a permament job
