Pros

The money & security if being insulated from the outside world. The opportunity to work with smart, highly international people. Arguably, if you are idealistic, you might be able to convince yourself that what you are doing is of real importance to the outside world

Cons

no career progression - certinaly not meritocratic. Painfully slow to get anything done. very bureaucratic by definition. extreme public sector atmosphere and environment. Absolutely a grey, dull place to work in every sense. Very few employees under the age of 35 or so.
