Pros

• work life balance • pension after 5 years. • benefits • salary "can" be good

Cons

• think big, but then offer big and watch it get disassembled • TOO MANY supervisors, not enough workers • too many ambitions. Please focus on quality rather than quantity • each CEO has new agenda.. and then leaves before it gets fully implemented • kool aid drinking • more important how you are perceived rather than your input • AARP on your resume won't necessarily help you get to a better place (next job) • salaries are all about meeting the midpoint rather than your worth • Top VPs make exceedingly too much money by contrast of AARP being a non profit • Several approvers on one single project
