Pros

- very good work/life balance - high pay ane benefits in a low cost city (Bruxelles) - If you work in a legislation-producing directorate like mine, it's a very interesting job for a lawyer (i'm not a lawyer though, so not interesting to me..). - Avoid non-legislation producing directorates, these are purely administrative machines, extremely boring and quite useless.

Cons

- Heavy bureaucracy - Little meritocracy - Office politics rule the day
