Pros

Great mission, and a wonderful staff of intelligent, hardworking, and supportive folks at the National Office. Environment is very collegial, and emphasis is placed on fostering staff's individuality and development as professionals. I never felt any hesitation in sharing my thoughts or ideas with senior management, and was always treated like a valued member of the team. Employee benefits are great- insurance, retirement, commuter/parking incentives, vacation time and personal leave.

Cons

Location is a bit tough to get to if you live outside DC.
