Pros

Great name recognition and mission - especially for Government Relations and policy related issues. Some staff really care about the mission

Cons

Very little chance to advance beyond middle management. Innovation is lacking with senior management. For an organization opposed to ageism - they often practice reverse ageism and inherently are against the advancement of younger employees.
