Pros

A truly international environment with colleagues from around the world working with an inspirational mission and mandate. Some excellent career advancement opportunities (and the ability to move outside a work silo) as well as superior benefits.

Cons

A very bureaucratic institution with many bad systems in place which frustrate (especially younger) staff. In some ways (especially externally) the Bank can be quite an innovative and exciting institution but in others, it is fiercely resistant to change, particularly in terms of organizational and HR matters, as opposed to business policies per se.
