What're the occupational differences between pure and applied mathematics?

I'm not so much asking about or for examples of jobs that use pure or applied mathematics as I am asking about the work environment of pure and applied mathematics. What's the work like in both? What's similar and what's different?

Should test be altered to fit each student and challenge him or herself.
