Pros

Mulitcultural working environment, exciting topics, great salary, lots of vacation, ...

Cons

If you are looking for a fast-paced, stimulating environment, you might better go for the private sector! The young colleagues are mostly great and upbeat, but there are lots of older, very low-skilled incompetent, demotivated folks with very limited communication skills.

Pros

Multicultural environment; good wage; a good balance between personal and working life; a reasonable working schedule and great flexibility and other benefits.

Cons

a very bureaucratic organization; some work does nott 'see the light of the day', some activities and tasks performed there are clearly useless.
