Pros

You will have a sense of personal fulfillment from helping others Okay benefits Professional

Cons

Don't get paid competitively Sometime expected to work longer hours than paid for, and to pitch in where you don't normally work There's a double tier system in place, if you're an officer, you get better benefits, hours, pay, treatment, etc. then regular employees, and most people that are officers have been born into the culture-their families were Salvation Army officers

Pros

Had so much fun at the internship and the supervisors were genuinely invested in us as college students that time, to grow and learn more under them. Also free lunch everyday and it was pretty good! Free parking too.

Cons

Only the commute as traffic is no joke in the DMV.
