Business Outlook
Pros
Good pay, excellent benefits (strong health insurance, pension, many vacation days) Overall commitment to social justice values and progressive ideals Opportunities to work in event, people, and political organizing
Cons
Campaign mentality may be difficulty for some - organization changes its focus of its work and its efforts. Need to be flexible more so than some may be willing. Introverted people may have some difficulty finding a good fit. Vacation pay is often not used because of high workload/high commitments. Staff union has difficulty fighting managers who don't act according to good principles. Management and staff pay increases will be very low/nonexistent in near future.
