      Pros

      Great international crowd. Interesting people. One hour lunches and 2 vacation days per month.

      Cons

      Bureaucracy. Bureaucracy. Bureaucracy. The IDB is extremely hierarchical boarding on feudal. The company is old - the employees have been here forever and most staff is stagnant. It has all the problems governments is south america have.

      If you are a Consultant you must work hard, if you are an employee... not so much

      Pros

      The building is impressive (gym, daycare, health unit, cafeteria, auditorium, library, etc. ) Benefits and salaries are great (for employees).

      Cons

      Lots of bureaucracy and arrogant people. It takes like forever to get the simplest thing done. Good luck if you are able to secure a staff position, 99% of them are only for those who already have a friend or an acquaintance working there. Most of all operational processes are outdated and inefficient, but employees really don't care as long as they receive their juicy salaries.
