Pros

You'll have the opportunity to work on amazing issues at the ground-level of grassroots activism.

Cons

Incredibly low pay and an extreme workload, fellows burn out within months (sometimes weeks), and condescending staff members. I was told by an older fellow that staff members intentionally mistreated underachieving fellows during training with hopes they would quit so they wouldn't have to pay them severance.

Pros

No pros just disappointment .

Cons

Three interviews over four months. Told multiple times I'm a top candidate being considered. No decision by the deadline they gave me just told weeks after I followed up paperwork is still being finalized. Ghosted. Why bother telling me multiple times that I'm a top candidate to then just ghost me? At least tell me I did not get the job. Absolutely unprofessional. Was hoping to be offered the internship just so I could say no and waste their time back.
