Pros

-- The work is very interesting-- no where else would I get to work on issues on education or health at such a macro level -- My colleagues and managers are extremely bright, personable people-- it's a fun place to work, and easy to meet new people if you are new in town. -- Good pay for development work

Cons

-- Limited opportunities for career progression (not merit based, rather duration based) -- There can be a lot of travelling (some people travel as much as 30% of the year)
