Pros

The cause is fantastic. The politics and pay are not.

Cons

The "National" department is an absolute joke. You are not given any freedom to do your job and are micromanaged on a daily basis. The reason people work here is for the cause and research, not to be involved in a political scheme.

Pros

This organziation so completely buys into its mission and works in every possible way to deliver on the promise.

Cons

Economic swings do not always favor something considered less of a tangible than food and shelter when it comes to donor choices.

Pros

Small enough for you to know everyone and everyone to know you. You have a good chance to meet all senior-level staff, and everyone is generally open and friendly. The research department is a desirable place to work for anyone passionate about finding a cure for Type 1 Diabetes, or even just passionate about charitable work in general.

Cons

Not much potential for advancement unless you are patient.
