Pros

RAND's mission is truly inspiring and it makes a difference in the day to day - everyone around me was proud to work for an organization that is working hard to solve the world's most complex problems. I worked with many smart and hard working people and learned a lot.

Cons

There are some managers and even senior leaders that are simply not meeting the requirements of their jobs, are very ineffective at leading teams, it's pretty much broadly known to everyone that works with them or for them, and yet they still have their jobs. Support staff are sometimes treated disrespectfully by the researchers.

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