Pros

The organization has a lot of resources and the mission is something everyone can get behind - making life better for people over 50.

Cons

It's hard to advance and the organization itself is so regimented and top down that there's not a real sense of participation from all employees.

Pros

The people at AARP truly care about the mission. They are passionate about their members and potential members. They want the staff to be happy and work to promote a positive environment. The development teams are empowered and excellent. I highly recommend AARP as a pace to work

Cons

There are a few folks who are in way over their heads. Most of those folks are BAs and only spend 8-10 minutes per year on initiatives that will impact the entire AARP population, claiming that they just didn't have time, and once the budgets are approved, the features and tasks remain.
