Pros

If you get in with a good organization that you're interested in, it could potentially be okay. There are a lot of opportunities that are well written on the website to get people interested

Cons

Pay is horrible; for the number of hours they expect you to work per week it's nearly impossible to have another job as well..unless you don't want to have a life! Also,'trainings' are completely worthless
