Pros

Fast-paced work, and working with international colleagues makes the experience very interesting. Obviously, researching cutting-edge policy issues is fascinating.

Cons

The social atmosphere can take some getting used to. Parts of it are very much dominated by older, white American and European men, which can make the work setting feel very stiff and competitive.
