Pros

Salary, looks good on resume, diversity of staff, interesting projects. Fantastic pay and benefits, great cafeteria. It was a great experience but beware that permanent staff will take advantage of you and your willingness to help.

Cons

Work is not delegated fairly, many staff at all levels abuse their power and there are a surprisingly large number of unprofessional and arrogant staff that work there. Many things are ignored here that wouldn't be in the US Federal Govt or American private company.

Name Tag, exposure to the MDB set up

Too small a cog in too large an organisation. No autonomy. Very manager dependent. Publishing becomes the end goal oftentimes.
