Pros

Great meaningful place to work that has the best of nonprofit / CBO mission and mindset but with corporate infrastructure and resources. As a “flat” org, there’s a lot of access and flexibility for project choice but this isn’t for everyone. Great smart people and commitment to impact. Strong culture and lots of flexibility and support

Cons

It’s a balance between the classified / national security side and social economic policy, but this can be a good breath of work.

Really flexible hours, amazing project team members, engaging projects.

You will need to network and find your own projects, sometimes finding ~3-5 projects at one time to ensure full utilization.
