Pros

Very exciting to be surrounded by all kinds of artworks. Never know what's coming in the next day. Multilingual environment.

Cons

Horrible pay for the amount of work people do there. Departments are incredibly understaffed and some people have to work ridiculous hours without being compensated. It's not ok! Some departments are a bit more friendly and laid back while some are as stressful as hell. And lots of passive-aggressive behaviour/bullying in the department - definitely wipes out the last bit of incentive to work those long hours with very low pay.
