Pros

IRC is a large company with good intentions.

Pros

IRC Baltimore has a fantastic staff, with client relationships strongly emphasized. The staff is incredibly patient with interns, and everyone works as a team. Great, friendly group that is 100% dedicated to the cause, no one cuts corners here!

Cons

The office is severely understaffed and it's stressful working environment if you're not accustomed to the field. Because the work is incredibly difficult, mentally and emotionally, it can become difficult to maintain a good work/life balance, which becomes that much more essential to your sanity. If not you will burnout, quickly.
