Pros

People are very diverse because they are from all over the world. The work culture is pretty laid back...I like my job at the world bank though.

Cons

The bank itself is pretty bureaucratic. After all, it is an international government agency. If you don't like the laid-back culture, it is certainly not a good fit.

Pros

Working with and in professional teams gives you an exposure to developmental issues, and how we will overcome these challenges. The greatest achievements are seeing the capacity of government staff trying to "do it themselves". We are at the forefront, seeing how policy is refined and aligned with national priorities, and this is an acheivement exhileration beyond words for those who work in developmental issues. Plus, the pay is excellent!

Cons

The excitement of a position in the World Bank depends on what you are working on.
