Pros

Good benefits. Mission is important.

Cons

The experience you have totally depends on the local leadership. National leadership is aware of issues, but is slow to take action. Several supervisors lack any sense of emotional intelligence. There is a lot of talk of being inclusive, but supervisors lack the skills to be inclusive because they care too much about personal status.

Pros

Good benefits - lots of time off, but many people work during their schedule vacations. Sometimes get surprise bonus days off. Health insurance coverage is superb. 401(k) match plus a 403(b) contribution

Cons

A lot of rude co-workers, who act like their jobs are more important. Back-stabbing, even at the highest levels. Culture is awful. Not professional at all.
