Still THE place to work in international development

Program manager
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The World Bank Group (which includes IFC) is the only truly global organization that works on the forefront of several crucial development issues such as climate change, health & education, gender, public sector reforms, private sector development. As such there are no limits to where you can go or what to do, provided that you are patient enough as things are sometimes moving slowly. In addition, regardless of the complaints on this site, the compensation package for full-time staff is outstanding.

Cons

The World Bank is a big bureaucracy. As such, decision making, career progression, etc. are comparatively slow but still much better than at the U.N. or other international organizations.
