Pros

Recognized brand in its field

Cons

During my time there, I witnessed frequent bullying of women and junior staff: when reported, response was "life isn't fair." Basic legal employee rights not observed (leave under FMLA; document review period legally required for terminated employees in certain categories). Once witnessed the current president ask how they could make an employee so miserable that they would quit without having to fire them.

Pros The team is incredibly supportive, fostering a collaborative and respectful work environment. Work-life balance is genuinely valued, allowing for flexibility and personal well-being. One of the standout perks is the opportunity to attend and contribute to major policy events, which is both inspiring and professionally enriching.

Cons

Leadership changes have been frequent, which can create uncertainty and disrupt continuity. Compensation is on the lower end compared to industry standards, which may be a concern for long-term financial growth.
